DO NOT OPERATE, SERVICE, OR REPAIR THIS EQUIPMENT UNLESS YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND ALL
APPLICABLE SECTIONS OF THIS MANUAL.
DO NOT ALLOW OTHERS TO OPERATE, SERVICE, OR REPAIR THIS EQUIPMENT UNLESS THEY FULLY
UNDERSTAND ALL APPLICABLE SECTIONS OF THIS MANUAL.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW ALL APPLICABLE WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN SEVERE
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
TO: Owners, Operators and/or Maintenance Personnel
This operating manual presents information that will help to properly operate and care for the equipment. Study its contents
carefully. The unit will provide good service and continued operation if proper operating and maintenance instructions are followed. No attempt should be made to operate the unit until the principles of operation and all of the components are thoroughly
understood. Failure to follow all applicable instructions and warnings may result in severe personal injury or death.
It is the responsibility of the owner to train and advise not only his or her personnel, but the contractors' personnel who are servicing, repairing or operating the equipment, in all safety aspects.
Cleaver-Brooks equipment is designed and engineered to give long life and excellent service on the job. The electrical and mechanical devices supplied as part of the unit were chosen because of their known ability to perform; however, proper operating
techniques and maintenance procedures must be followed at all times. Although these components afford a high degree of protection and safety, operation of equipment is not to be considered free from all dangers and hazards inherent in handling and
firing of fuel.
Any "automatic" features included in the design do not relieve the attendant of any responsibility. Such features merely free
him of certain repetitive chores and give him more time to devote to the proper upkeep of equipment.
It is solely the operator’s responsibility to properly operate and maintain the equipment. No amount of written instructions can
replace intelligent thinking and reasoning and this manual is not intended to relieve the operating personnel of the responsibility
for proper operation. On the other hand, a thorough understanding of this manual is required before attempting to operate, maintain, service, or repair this equipment.
Because of state, local, or other applicable codes, there are a variety of electric controls and safety devices which vary considerably from one boiler to another. This manual contains information designed to show how a basic burner operates.
Operating controls will normally function for long periods of time and we have found that some operators become lax in their
daily or monthly testing, assuming that normal operation will continue indefinitely. Malfunctions of controls lead to uneconomical operation and damage and, in most cases, these conditions can be traced directly to carelessness and deficiencies in testing
and maintenance.
It is recommended that a boiler room log or record be maintained. Recording of daily, weekly, monthly and yearly maintenance
activities and recording of any unusual operation will serve as a valuable guide to any necessary investigation.
Most instances of major boiler damage are the result of operation with low water. We cannot emphasize too strongly the need
for the operator to periodically check his low water controls and to follow good maintenance and testing practices. Cross-connecting piping to low water devices must be internally inspected periodically to guard against any stoppages which could obstruct the free flow of water to the low water devices. Float bowls of these controls must be inspected frequently to check for
the presence of foreign substances that would impede float ball movement.
The waterside condition of the pressure vessel is of extreme importance. Waterside surfaces should be inspected frequently to
check for the presence of any mud, sludge, scale or corrosion.
The services of a qualified water treating company or a water consultant to recommend the proper boiler water treating practices
are essential.
The operation of this equipment by the owner and his or her operating personnel must comply with all requirements or regulations of his insurance company and/or other authority having jurisdiction. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between
such requirements and the warnings or instructions contained herein, please contact Cleaver-Brooks before proceeding.

A. GENERAL
Firetube boilers are available for low or high pressure steam,
or for hot water applications. Firetube boilers are typically
used for applications ranging from 15 to 800 horsepower. A
firetube boiler is a cylindrical vessel, with horizontal tubes
passing through and connected to the front and rear tube
sheets. The vessel contains the water and absorbs the energy
generated from the flame. The front door and rear door
provide the seal to contain the hot combustion gasses. Baffles
designed into the doors serve to redirect the combustion
gasses through the various firetube passages. The flame
originates in the furnace. As the combustion gasses travel
down the furnace and through the various firetube channels,
heat from the flame and combustion gasses is transferred to
the water. Transferred energy develops into the required
steam or hot water. The primary purpose of the boiler is to
supply energy to the facility’s operations - for heat,
manufacturing process, laundry, kitchen, etc. The nature of
the facility’s operation will dictate whether a steam or hot
water boiler should be used.
Note: If your boiler is equipped with a CBH AW K  b o i l e r m a n a g e m e n t c o n t ro l
system, refer to CB-HAWK Installation,
Operating and Servicing Manual No. 750133 for information regarding controls
discussed in Chapter 1.

The LE Option, available on Cleaver-Brooks Firetube
Boilers, reduces Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) emissions, a major
precursor to ozone pollution (smog). Carbon Monoxide (CO)
emissions also tend to be lower, due to increased turbulence
caused by the addition of the flue gases into the combustion
air stream, thereby improving combustion.
The LE Option is used on Cleaver-Brooks Model CB Firetube
boilers firing either natural gas and/or light oil, and is
compatible with both hot water and steam systems.
The IFGR system mixes a portion of the relatively cool flue
gas from the exit of the fourth-pass tubes with the incoming
combustion air to reduce the furnace flame temperature,
thereby reducing NOx emissions. In this approach, the
combustion air fan handles both the combustion air and the
recirculated flue gases. Accordingly, this method is called
1-2
Induced Flue Gas Recirculation (IFGR), because the flue gas
is “induced” into the fan inlet.
The LE Option, with its various levels of IFGR systems, can
affect the selection of the combustion air fan, motor, burner,
a n d o t h e r c o m p o n e n t s . S eve r a l d i ff e r e n t s y s t e m
configurations are available, depending on the requirements
for NOx emissions and the fuels used. All systems use
similar primary components, but may have different linkage
controls, IFGR damper, fan, and motor sizes.
Always order genuine Cleaver-Brooks parts from your local
Cleaver-Brooks authorized representative.
The boiler and related equipment installation are to be in
compliance with the standards of the National Board of Fire
Underwriters. Installation should also conform to state and
local codes governing such equipment. Prior to installation,
the proper authorities having jurisdiction are to be consulted,
permits obtained, etc. All boilers in the above series comply,
when equipped with optional equipment, to Industrial Risk
Insurers (IRI), Factory Mutual (FM), or other insuring
underwriters requirements.
B. THE BOILER
The Model CB boiler is a packaged firetube boiler of welded
steel construction and consists of a pressure vessel, burner,
burner controls, forced draft fan, damper, air pump,
refractory, and appropriate boiler trim.
The horsepower rating of the boiler is indicated by the
numbers following the fuel series. Thus, CB700-250
indicates a gas-fired 250 hp boiler.
The firetube construction provides some characteristics that
differentiate it from other boiler types. Because of its vessel
size, the firetube contains a large amount of water, allowing
it to respond to load changes with minimum variation in
steam pressure.
Firetube boilers are rated in boiler horsepower (BHP), which
should not be confused with other horsepower measurements.
Hot water is commonly used in heating applications with the
boiler supplying water to the system at 180 °F to 220 °F. The
operating pressure for hot water heating systems usually is
30 psig to 125 psig.
Steam boilers are designed for low pressure or high pressure
applications. Low pressure boilers are limited to 15 psig
design, and are typically used for heating applications. High
750-91
Basics of Firetube Operation
Chapter 1
pressure boilers are typically used for process loads and can
have a design pressure of 75 to 350 psig.
Steam and hot water boilers are defined according to design
pressure and operating pressure. Design pressure is the maximum pressure used in the design of the boiler for the purpose of calculating the minimum permissible thickness or
physical characteristics of the pressure vessel parts of the
boiler. Typically, the safety valves are set at or below design
pressure. Operating pressure is the pressure of the boiler at
which it normally operates. The operating pressure usually is
maintained at a suitable level below the setting of the pressure relieving valve(s) to prevent their frequent opening during normal operation.
The type of service that your boiler is required to provide has
an important bearing on the amount of waterside care it will
require.
! CAUTION
DANGER
Waterside care is of prime importance. For
specific information or assistance with your
water treatment requirements, contact your
Cleaver-Brooks service and parts representative. Failure to follow these instructions
could result in equipment damage

Feedwater equipment should be checked and ready for use.
Be sure that all valves, piping, boiler feed pumps, and
receivers are installed in accordance with prevailing codes
and practices.
Water requirements for both steam and hot water boilers are
essential to boiler life and length of service. Constant
attention to water requirements will pay dividends in the form
of longer life, less down-time, and prevention of costly
repairs. Care taken in placing the pressure vessel into initial
service is vital. The waterside of new boilers and new or
remodeled steam or hot water systems may contain oil, grease
or other foreign matter. A method of boiling out the vessel to
remove accumulations is described in Chapter 3.
The operator should be familiar with Chapter 3 before
attempting to place the unit into operation.
C. CONSTRUCTION
Steam boilers designed for 15 psig and hot water boilers
designed for 250° F at 125 psi or less are constructed in
accordance with Section IV, Power Boilers, of ASME Code.
Steam boilers designed for operating pressures exceeding 15
psig are constructed in accordance with Section 1, Power
Boilers, of the ASME Code. Hot water boilers designed for

11. Safety Valve(s) (Figure 1-9): Prevent buildup over the
design pressure of the pressure vessel. The size, rating
and number of valves on a boiler is determined by the
ASME Boiler Code. The safety valves and the discharge
piping are to be installed to conform to the ASME code
requirements. The installation of a valve is of primary
importance to its service life. A valve must be mounted
in a vertical position so that discharge piping and coderequired drains can be properly piped to prevent buildup
of back pressure and accumulation of foreign material
around the valve seat area. Apply only a moderate
amount of pipe compound to male threads and avoid
overtightening, which can distort the seats. Use only flatjawed wrenches on the flats provided. When installing a
flange-connected valve, use a new gasket and draw the
mounting bolts down evenly. Do not install or remove
side outlet valves by using a pipe or wrench in the outlet.

F. IFGR COMPONENTS
1. Flue Gas Transfer Port, IFGR Damper, and Flange Collar
(Figure 1-14). The flue gas transfer port is a tube that
allows the flue gases to travel from the exit of the fourthpass tubes to the entrance of the combustion air fan.
The IFGR damper controls the volume of flue gas induced
into the combustion air stream. The damper is located in
the flue gas transfer port and is positioned by the control
linkage.
2. IFGR Damper Linkage (Figure 1-15). The IFGR damper
is positioned by the control linkage. The linkage could
consist of a single arm, or it could consist of several arms
driven from the jackshaft to provide modulating control
(see Figure 1-15).
3. Over-Travel Mechanism (Figures 1-14 and 1-15). The
over-travel mechanism has two functions. It allows the
linkage to pass through the front door, and it allows
jackshaft rotation to exceed (over travel) IFGR linkage
COMBUSTION AIR INLET
movement. A set of springs allows the linkage to stay in a
fixed position while the jackshaft rotates.
4. Fuel Change-Over Linkage (Figure 1-15). When a boiler
is equipped to fire either gas or oil (dual-fuel boilers), and
the required NOx levels are below 60 ppm on natural gas,
a dual-linkage arrangement is used to provide the different
recirculation rates required for each fuel. Two jackshaft
drive arms are provided, one for oil and one for gas. The
linkage is manually connected to the appropriate arm,
based on the fuel being used.
On dual-fuel boilers with two jackshaft drive arms, as
defined above, a proximity switch is used to prove that the
correct linkage connection is made. (Refer to the wiring
diagram provided with the boiler.)
5. Fan/Motor Cassette (Figure 1-16). The fan and motor
assemblies are designed as a cassette so that they can be
removed from the front of the boiler, without opening the
front door. The front door davit arm can be used to remove
the assembly (Figure 1-16).

A. THE BURNER
AIR DAMPER OPEN
The oil burner is of the low pressure, air atomizing (nozzle)
type. The gas burner is of the non-premix orifice type. The
burners are ignited by spark ignited gas pilot. The pilot is of
the interrupted type and is extinguished after main flame is
established.
AIR DAMPER CLOSED
N o t e : A S e r i e s 1 0 0 b o i l e r i s u s u a l ly
equipped with a light oil pilot, although a
gas pilot is also available.
Burners equipped to burn oil and gas (combination burners)
include equipment for each distinct fuel. Since the burner
uses only one type of fuel at a time, a gas/oil selector switch
is incorporated.
Regardless of which fuel is used, the burner operates with full
modulation (within its rated operating range). The burner
returns to minimum firing position for ignition. Highpressure boilers (above 15 psi) can be wired for both lowpressure and high-pressure modulation, which enables the
boiler to operate at lower pressure during off-load hours, but
at a somewhat reduced steam output, dependent upon lower
steam pressure and steam nozzle sizing.
The flame safeguard and program relay include a flame
detector to supervise both oil and gas flames, and to shut the
burner down in the event of loss of flame. The programming
portion of the control provides a pre-purging period, proving
of the pilot and main flame, and a period of continued blower
operation to postpurge the boiler of all unburned fuel vapor.
Other safety controls shut down the burner under low-water
conditions, excess steam pressure, or water temperature.
Safety interlock controls include combustion and atomizing
air proving switches and, depending upon the fuel and
insurance carrier requirements, controls that prove the
presence of adequate fuel pressure, plus temperature proving
controls when heated fuel oil is used.
The sequence of burner operation from startup through
shutdown is governed by the program relay in conjunction
750-91
Figure: 2-1 Burner Drawer
with the operating, limit and interlock devices. The devices
are wired into the circuitry to provide safe operation and
protect against incorrect operating techniques.
All CB boilers have the burner assembly attached to the front
head. The entire head may be swung open for inspection and
maintenance.
Combustion air is provided by a centrifugal blower located in
the front head (Figure 2-5, 2-6). Combustion air flow
diagrams for both the CB-LE and the standard CB boiler are
shown in figure 2-2 and figure 2-3. Combustion air delivery
to the burner is under the control of the modulating motor
(Figure 2-4). The motor also regulates the flow of fuel
through a linkage system connected to the gas butterfly valve
and/or oil through a cam-operated metering valve. Fuel input
and air are thus properly proportioned for most efficient
combustion.
Filtered primary air for atomizing fuel oil is furnished
independently of combustion air by an air pump. The
standard 78” firetube boiler is equipped with the belt driven
air pump (Figure 2-5). The 78” CB-LE uses the frame
mounted air pump (Figure 2-6).

B. CONTROL AND COMPONENT
FUNCTION
The term “control” covers the more important valves and
components, including, but not limited to electrical controls
or those monitored by the program relay. The operator must
become familiar with the individual functioning of all
controls before understanding boiler operation and
procedures outlined in this manual.
Before proceeding, identify and locate each item using the
callout in the illustration.
The actual controls furnished with any given boiler will
depend upon the type of fuel for which it is equipped, and
whether it is a hot water or steam boiler. Refer to the
applicable group or groups within Chapter 2 that apply to the
particular boiler.
Boilers with optional features may have control
components not listed here.
Figure: 2-10 Control Box
C. COMPONENTS COMMON TO ALL
BOILERS
1.
Forced Draft Fan Motor (Figure 2-7): Drives the forced
draft fan directly to provide combustion air. Also referred
to as a blower motor.
2.
Forced Draft Fan (Figure 2-8): Provides all air, under
pressure, for combustion of pilot fuel and main fuel, and
for purging.
3.
Modulating Motor (Figure 2-4 & 2-9): Operates the
rotary air damper and fuel metering valves through a cam
and linkage system to provide proper air/fuel ratios under
all boiler load conditions.
4.
Modulating Motor Transformer (Figure 2-9) (located in
the mod motor): Reduces control circuit voltage (115
Vac) to required voltage (24Vac) for operation of the
modulating motor.
5.
Forced Draft Fan Motor Starter (Figure 2-9 & 2-10):
Energizes forced draft fan (blower) motor.
6.
Ignition Transformer (Figure 2-9): Provides high voltage
spark for ignition of gas pilot or light oil pilot.
7.
Low Fire Switch (Not Shown, located in the mod motor):
An internal auxiliary switch, cam actuated by the motor
shaft, which must be closed to indicate that the air
damper and fuel metering valve are in the low fire
position before an ignition cycle can occur.
8.
Atomizing Air Proving Switch (Figure 2-10): A
pressure-sensitive switch actuated by air pressure from
the Air Pump. Its contacts close to prove presence of
atomizing air. The fuel valves cannot be energized unless
this switch is satisfied.
2-4
9.
Manual-Automatic Switch (Figure 2-9): When set at
“automatic,” subsequent operation is at the command of
the modulating control, which governs the position of the
modulating motor in accordance with load demand.
When set at “manual,” the modulating motor, through the
manual flame control, can be positioned at a desired
burner firing rate. The primary purpose of the manual
position is for testing and setting the air/fuel ratio
through the entire firing range.
10. Manual Flame Control (Figure 2-9): A manually
operated potentiometer that permits the positioning of
the modulating motor to a desired burner firing rate when
the manual-automatic switch is set on “manual“. It is
used primarily for initial or subsequent setting of fuel
input throughout the firing range. It has no control over
the firing rate when the manual-automatic switch is set
on “automatic.”
11. Burner Switch (Figure 2-9 & 2-10): A manually operated
start-stop switch for directly starting and stopping
operation of burner.
12. Flame Detector (Figure 2-9): Monitors gas or oil pilot
and energizes the programmer flame relay in response to
a flame signal. It continues to monitor main flame (oil or
gas) after expiration of pilot providing period. A standard
equipped boiler has a lead sulfide (infrared sensitive)
detector.
13. Combustion Air Proving Switch (Figure 2-9): A
pressure-sensitive switch actuated by air pressure from
the forced draft fan. Its contacts close to prove presence
750-91
Burner Operation and Control
of combustion air. The fuel valves cannot be energized
unless this switch is satisfied. The combustion air
proving switch is provided on all gas fired or
combination gas-oil burners. An oil fired boiler does not
normally have a separate switch but utilizes the
atomizing air proving switch to the same effect, since the
presence of atomizing air from the air pump, which is
belt driven from the blower motor, is evidence of blower
operation.

D. CONTROLS FOR GAS FIRING
Depending upon the requirements of the insurance carrier or
other governing agencies, the gas flow control system, or gas
train, may consist of some, or all, of the following items.
Refer to the Dimension Diagram (DD) prepared by CleaverBrooks for your specified installation.
1.
Gas Pilot Valve (Figure 2-10): A solenoid valve that
opens during the ignition period to admit fuel to the pilot.
It closes after main flame is established. The sequence of
energizing and de-energizing is controlled by the
programming relay. A second gas pilot valve may be
required by insurance regulations.
2.
Gas Pilot Vent Valve (Figure 2-10): When a second gas
pilot valve is required, a normally open vent valve
(optional equipment) is installed between them. Its
purpose is to vent gas to the atmosphere, should any be
14. Alarm (Figure 2-9): Sounds to notify the operator of a
condition requiring attention. The alarm is available as
optional equipment.
15. Stack Thermometer (Figure 2-9): Indicates temperature
of vented flue gases.
16. Diffuser (Figures 2-9): A circular plate, located at the
furnace end of the burner drawer, that imparts a rotary
swirling motion to combustion air immediately prior to
its entering the flame, thus providing a thorough and
efficient mixture with the fuel.
17. Rotary Air Damper (Figures 2-9): Provides accurate
control of combustion air in proportion to fuel input for
various load demands. It consists of two concentric
cylinders with openings. The outer is stationary. The
inner is rotated, under control of the modulating motor,
to vary the effective size of the openings where they
overlap.

•Flame Failure
•Load Demand
•Fuel Valve (valve open)
•Low Water
19. Program Relay and Flame Safeguard Control (Figure 29): Automatically programs each starting, operating and
shutdown period in conjunction with operating limit and
interlock devices. Includes, in a timed and proper
sequence, the operation of the blower motor, ignition
system, fuel valve(s), and the damper motor. The
sequence includes air purge periods prior to ignition and
upon burner shutdown.

The flame detector portion of the control monitors both oil
and gas flames and provides protection in the event of loss of
a flame signal.
The control recycles automatically during normal operation,
or following a power interruption. It must be manually reset
following a safety shutdown caused by a loss of flame. An
internal checking circuit, effective on every start, prevents
burner operation in the event anything causes the flame relay
to hold in during this period.

F. Oil Return Pressure Gauge: Indicates oil pressure on
the return side of the fuel oil controller.
G. Manual By-Pass Valve: Provided as a time saver in
establishing oil flow. When open, it permits
circulation of oil through the supply and return lines.
The valve must be closed prior to initial light off.
H. Orifice Oil Control Valve: Valve may be opened prior
to start-up to aid in establishing fuel oil flow through
the controller. The valve must be closed prior to initial
light off. Its disc has an orifice to permit a continuous
circulation of hot fuel oil through the controller.
I. Air Purge Valve: Solenoid valve opens simultaneously
with closing of oil solenoid valve at burner shutdown,
allowing compressed air to purge oil from the burner
nozzle and adjacent piping. The oil is burned by the

H. COMBUSTION AIR
Air for combustion of fuel (often referred to as “secondary”
air) is furnished by the forced draft fan (Figure 2-24) mounted
in the boiler head. In operation, air pressure is built up in the
entire head and is forced through a diffuser plate for a
thorough mixture with the fuel for proper combustion. The
supply of secondary air to the burner is governed by
automatically throttling the output of the fan by regulating the
rotary air damper. The damper provides the proper amount of
air for correct ratio of air to fuel for efficient combustion at all
firing rates.

vent valve closes when the gas pilot valves open, and opens
when the gas pilot valves shut to vent gas, should any be
present in the pilot line during the deenergized period of the
gas pilot valves.
Fuel for a light-oil pilot is provided from the line that supplies
oil under pressure for the main flame. A solenoid actuated
valve controls flow of oil to the pilot nozzle. The valve is
energized simultaneously with the ignition transformer at the
beginning of the ignition cycle and is deenergized after main
flame is ignited and established.

I. AUTOMATIC IGNITION
Oil or gas burners are ignited by an interrupted-type pilot. The
pilot flame is ignited automatically by an electric spark.
The series 100 burner usually is equipped with a pilot fired
with light oil fuel. All other burners are equipped with a gas
burning pilot. In the case of a combination burner, the gas
pilot is used to ignite either the main gas flame or the oil
flame. Either pilot serves the same function. Unless exception
is taken in the text, the term pilot is used interchangeably.
At the beginning of the ignition cycle, and governed by the
program relay, the pilot solenoid valve and ignition
transformer are simultaneously energized.
The ignition transformer supplies high voltage current for the
igniting spark. A gas pilot has a single electrode and a spark
arcs between the tip of the electrode and the wall of the tube
surrounding it. A light oil pilot has two electrodes and the arc
is between their tips. The pilot solenoid valve and the
transformer are deenergized after main flame is ignited and
established.
Fuel for the gas pilot is supplied from the utility’s main, or
from a tank (bottle) supply. Secondary air flows into and
mixes with the pilot gas stream to provide an adequate flame.
750-91
Atomizing air pressure is indicated by the air pressure gauge
on the burner gun.
Air pressure from the pump also forces sufficient oil from the
tank to the pump bearings to lubricate them and also to
provide a seal and lubrication for the pump vanes. As a result,
the air delivered to the tank contains some lube oil; however,
most of it is recovered through baffles and filters in the tank
before the air passes to the burner.
Some of the primary air is also used to assist the oil pressure
regulators of the fuel oil controller. Further explanation is
given in chapter 5.
K. OIL FUEL FLOW - LIGHT OIL
The oil fuel flow system schematic is shown in Figure 2-25.
Oil flow is indicated by arrows and the pertinent controls are
called out. Fuel oil is delivered into the system by a supply
pump which delivers part of its discharge to the oil burner.
Excess oil is returned to the oil storage tank through the fuel
oil relief valve and oil return line. Normally the pump
operates only while the burner is in operation, although a
positioning switch is often provided so that either continuous
or automatic pump operation can be obtained.
The oil flows through a fuel oil strainer to prevent any foreign
material from flowing through the control valves and nozzle.
The fuel oil controller contains in a single unit, a metering
valve, a regulator, and a gauge required to regulate the
pressure and flow of oil to the burner. The adjustable regulator
controls the pressure. To assist in the regulation, back

pressure is created by an orifice nozzle located in the oil
return line immediately downstream of the fuel oil controller.
The programming relay energizes or deenergizes the solenoid
oil valves to permit or cut off oil flow to the burner. Two
valves, operating simultaneously, are used. The valves are
closed when deenergized. They cannot be opened (energized)
unless the combustion air proving switch and the atomizing
air proving switch are closed. The two switches are satisfied,
respectively, by sufficient combustion air pressure from the
forced draft fan and pressurized air from the air pump.
The oil flow to the burner is controlled by the movement of
the metering stem in the oil metering valve, which varies the
flow to meet load demands. The metering valve and the air
damper are controlled simultaneously at all times by the
modulating motor to proportion combustion air and fuel for
changes in load demand.
L. OIL FUEL FLOW - HEAVY OIL
The oil fuel flow and circulating system is shown in
schematic diagram form in Figures 2-26. The pertinent
controls are called out and the oil flow is indicated by arrows.
Fuel oil is delivered into the system by the fuel oil supply
pump which delivers part of its discharge to the oil heater. The
remainder of the fuel oil returns to the oil storage tank
through a fuel oil relief valve and oil return line.
The combination electric and steam oil preheater is controlled
by thermostats. The electric oil heater thermostat energizes
the electric heater, which is provided to supply heated oil on
cold starts. The steam heater thermostat controls operation of
the steam solenoid valve to permit a flow of steam to the
heater when steam is available.
Burner Operation and Control
Oil flow to the burner is controlled by the movement of the
metering stem of the oil metering valve, which varies the flow
to meet load demands. The metering valve and the air damper
are controlled simultaneously at all times by the modulating
motor to proportion combustion air and fuel for changes in
load demand.
Oil is purged from the burner gun upon each burner
shutdown. The air purge solenoid valve opens as the fuel
valve closes, diverting atomizing air through the oil line. The
air assures a clean nozzle and line for subsequent restart.
M. GAS FUEL FLOW
Metered gas from the utility flows through the pressure
regulator at a reduced pressure suitable to burner
requirements, through the main gas shutoff cock, main gas
valve(s), and modulating butterfly gas valve to the nonpremix orifice-type burner.
The main gas valve is of the normally closed type, and is
opened (energized) in proper sequence by the programming
relay.
The butterfly gas valve modulates the flow of gas from low
through high fire settings. The position of the butterfly valve
disc is governed by the gas modulating cam. The butterfly gas
va l ve , a n d t h e a i r c o n t r o l d a m p e r a r e c o n t r o l l e d
simultaneously by the modulating motor to proportion
combustion air and fuel for changes in load demand.
The gas flow rate required for rated burner input depends
upon the heating value (Btu/cubic foot) of the gas supplied.
The gas pressure regulator adjusts the gas pressure (flow rate)
to the entrance of the gas train. The regulator is not always
supplied with the burner, but may be provided by others.
A hot water boiler is equipped to heat the oil with hot water
from the boiler, unless other preheating equipment is utilized.
The electric heater, which is housed separately, is sized to
provide heated oil on a cold start. The hot water thermostat
controls the operation of a pump that supplies hot water to the
oil heater when hot water is available.
The main gas valves cannot be energized (opened) unless the
combustion air proving switch is closed to indicate a
sufficient supply of combustion air. The low gas pressure and
high gas pressure switches must be closed to prove sufficient,
but not excessive, gas fuel pressure.
The heated oil flows through a fuel oil strainer to prevent any
foreign matter from entering the control valves and nozzle.
N. MODULATING FIRING
The fuel oil controller contains, in a single unit, the necessary
valves, regulators and gauges to regulate the pressure and
flow of oil to the burner.
The modulating motor, through a linkage arrangement
(Figure 2-27), controls the air damper and the butterfly gas
valve, or the oil metering valve, to maintain a constant air/fuel
ratio throughout the firing range.
The program relay energizes or deenergizes the solenoid oil
valve to permit or cut off oil flow to the burner. The oil
solenoid is closed when deenergized. It cannot be opened
(energized) unless the combustion air proving switch, the
atomizing air proving switch, and the low oil-temperature and
any pressure switches are closed. They are satisfied,
respectively, by sufficient combustion air pressure from the
forced draft fan, pressurized air from the air pump and
sufficient oil temperature and pressure.
During burner operation, the motor is controlled by a
modulating pressure control on a steam boiler, or by a
modulating temperature control on a hot water boiler. A
manually operated potentiometer is provided to permit
positioning of the motor at the desired burner firing rate. The
potentiometer is used primarily for initial or subsequent
checking and setting of fuel input. Normal operation should
be with the manual-automatic switch in the “automatic”
position and under the control of the modulating control.

direction continues until the resistance ratio of the two
potentiometers is equal.
When the resistance ratio is equal, the motor stops in a
position that allows the proper fuel and combustion air flow
to meet operating demands.
A feature designed into the circuitry maintains the
modulating motor in the low-fire position during ignition and
keeps it there until the main flame is established. A low-fire
switch, integral to the motor, is actuated by the rotation of the
motor. The switch must be closed to establish that the damper
and fuel metering valves are in the low-fire position before the
programmer commences into the ignition period. During this
time, neither the manual flame control nor the modulating

A. GENERAL
The operator should be familiar with Chapter 3 before
attempting to place the unit into operation.
Although it is of prime importance, the subject of water
supply and treatment cannot adequately be covered in this
manual. For specific information or assistance with your
water treatment requirements, contact your Cleaver-Brooks
service and parts representative.
Feedwater equipment should be checked and ready for use.
Be sure that all valves, piping, boiler feed pumps, and
receivers are installed in accordance with prevailing codes
and practices.
Water requirements for both steam and hot water boilers are
essential to boiler life and length of service. It is vital that care
be taken in placing the pressure vessel into initial service. The
waterside of new boilers and new or remodeled steam or hot
water systems may contain oil, grease or other foreign matter.
A method of boiling out the vessel to remove the
accumulations is described later in Chapter 3.
Boilers, as a part of a hot water system, require proper water
circulation. The system must be operated as intended by its
designer in order to avoid thermal shock or severe, possibly
damaging, stresses from occurring to the pressure vessel.
Note: This manual only covers boilers using
water. Glycol solutions have different
operating requirements, circulation rates
and temperatures, etc.

B. WATER REQUIREMENTS
1. HOT WATER BOILER
Air Removal
The hot water outlet includes a dip tube which extends 2 to 3
inches into the boiler. The dip tube reduces the possibility of
air, which may be trapped at the top of the shell, from entering
into the system. Oxygen or air released in the boiler will
collect or be trapped at the top of the boiler shell.
The air vent tapping on the top center line of the boiler should
be piped into the expansion or compression tank. Air trapped
at the top of the boiler will find its way out of the boiler
through the tapping.
M i n i m u m Wa t e r Te m p e r a t u r e - T h e m i n i m u m
recommended boiler water temperature is 170°F. When water
temperatures lower than 170°F are used, the combustion
gases are reduced in temperature to a point where water vapor
condenses, causing corrosion in the boiler and possible
breeching.
Condensation is more severe on a unit that operates
intermittently and which is greatly oversized for the actual
load. Condensation can be minimized by maintaining boiler
water temperatures above 170°F.
A temperature of 170°F is also recommended in order to
provide a sufficient “temperature head” when No. 6 fuel oil is
to be heated to the proper atomizing temperature by the boiler
water in a safety-type oil preheater. (The electric preheater on
the boiler must provide additional heat to the oil if boiler
water temperature is not maintained above 200°F.)
3-1
Chapter 3
Note: If the operating water temperature
going to the system must be lower than
1 7 0 ° F, t h e o p e r a t i n g b o i l e r w a t e r
temperature should be a minimum of 170°F
(200 ° F if used to preheat No. 6 oil) and
mixing valves should be used to avoid
damage to the equipment.
Rapid Replacement of Boiler Water - The system layout
and controls should be arranged to prevent the possibility of
pumping large quantities of cold water into a hot boiler,
which will cause shock or thermal stresses. Water
temperature in a boiler of 200 ° F or 240 ° F cannot be
completely replaced with 80°F water in a few minutes time
without causing thermal stress. The same fact applies to
periods of normal operation, as well as during initial start-up.
Note: The circulating pumps should be
interlocked with the burner so that the
burner cannot operate unless the
circulating pump is running in order to
avoid damage to the equipment.
When individual zone circulating pumps are used, it is
recommended that they be kept running-even though the heat
users do not require hot water. The relief device or by-pass
valve will thus allow continuous circulation through the
boiler and can help prevent rapid replacement of boiler water
with cold zone water.
Continuous Flow Through the Boiler - The system should
be piped and the controls arranged to allow water circulation
through the boiler under all operating conditions. The
operation of three-way valves and system controls should be
checked to be sure that the boiler will not be by-passed.
Constant circulation through the boiler eliminates the
possibility of stratification within the unit and results in more
even water temperatures to the system.
A rule of thumb of 3/4 to 1 gpm per boiler horsepower can be
used to determine the minimum continuous flow rate through
the boiler under all operating conditions. The operator should
determine that a flow of water exists through the boiler before
initial firing or refiring after boiler has been drained.
Water Circulation
The chart in Figure 3-1 shows the maximum gpm circulation
rate of boiler water in relation to full boiler output and system
temperature drop.
Multiple Boiler Installations - When multiple boilers are
used, care must be taken to ensure adequate or proportional
flow through the boilers. Proportional flow can best be
accomplished by use of balancing valves and gauges in the
supply line from each boiler. If balancing valves or orifice
plates are used, a significant pressure drop (e.g., 3-5 psi) must
be taken across the balancing device to accomplish the
purpose.
3-2
WATERSIDE CARE AND REQUIREMENTS
If care is not taken to ensure adequate or proportional flow
through the boilers, wide variations in firing rates between the
boilers can result.
In extreme cases, one boiler may be in the high-fire position
while the other boiler or boilers may be at low fire. The net
result would be that the common header water temperature to
the system would not be up to the desired point.
Pump Location - It is recommended that the system
circulating pumps take suction from the outlet connection on
the boiler, and that they discharge to the system load. In order
to put the boiler and the expansion tank on the suction side of
the pump. The suction side is preferred because it decreases
air entry into the system and does not impose the system head
on the boiler.
It is common practice to install a standby system circulating
pump. The main circulating pumps are usually located
adjacent to the boilers in the boiler room.
Pump Operation - Pumps are normally started and stopped
by manual switches. It is also desirable to interlock the pump
with the burner so that the burner cannot operate unless the
circulating pump is running.
Pressure
The design of the system and usage requirements often
dictate the pressure exerted upon the boiler. Some systems are
pressurized with air, or with an inert gas such as nitrogen.
Caution must be exercised to ensure that the proper
relationship of pressure-to-temperature exists within the
boiler so that all of the boiler’s internal surfaces are fully
wetted at all times. For this reason, the internal boiler
pressure, as indicated on the water pressure gauge, must be
held to the level shown in Figure 3-3.
When initially firing a newly installed boiler, or when cutting
an existing boiler into an operating system, the boiler or
boilers to be cut into operation MUST be pressurized equal to
the system and/or other boilers prior to opening the header
valves.
It is advisable to have a thermometer installed in the return
line to indicate return water temperature. Knowing the supply
water temperature, the boiler system differential can be
established. With knowledge of the pumping rate, the
operator can easily detect any excessive load condition and
take appropriate corrective action.
Special caution must be taken to guard against any condition,
or combination of conditions, that might lead to the transfer
of cold water to a hot boiler or hot water to a cold boiler. It
cannot be over-emphasized that rapid changes in temperature
within the boiler can, and sometimes do, cause damage.

Feed Pump Operation
BEFORE turning on the pump motor be certain that all valves
in the water feed line are open to prevent possible damage to
the feed pump mechanism. After opening the valves,
momentarily energize the feed pump motor to establish
correct pump rotation. With the correct rotation established,
close the boiler feed pump entrance switch. The pump should
shut down when the water level reaches the proper level
shown in Figure 3-2.
Feedwater pumps must have adequate capacity to maintain
required water level under all operating conditions. Check the
feedwater pumps periodically and maintain as necessary to
prevent unexpected breakdowns.
Note: Prior to operating the pump, carefully
check the alignment of the flexible coupling,
if one is used. A properly aligned coupling
will last a long time and provide trouble-free
mechanical operation.
Water Feeder (optional) Operation
Water feeder operation is usually applicable to boilers
operating at 15 psi steam or less. It is only necessary to open
the water supply line valve and the water feeder discharge
valve.
Note: In the event that water column
isolation valves are provided or installed, it
must be established that the valves are
open and seated or locked in the open
position. If the valves are installed, it is
illegal to operate the boiler with closed or
unsealed open valves.

low water condition. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in serious
personal injury or death
C. WATER TREATMENT
Properly treated boiler feed water, coupled with good
engineering and operating practices, lead to maximum
effectiveness and long trouble-free life of pressure vessels, at
the lowest operating cost. Contact your local Cleaver-Brooks
authorized representative for information on how to prevent
the presence of unwanted solids and corrosive gases.
750-91
Chapter 3
Objectives of water treatment in general are:
(1) Prevent hard scale deposits or soft sludge deposits,
which reduce heat transfer and can lead to overheated
metal and costly downtime and repairs.
(2) Eliminate corrosive gases in the supply or boiler
water.
(3) Prevent intercrystalline cracking or caustic
embrittlement of boiler metal.
(4) Prevent carryover and foaming.
Accomplishment of the above objectives generally requires
proper feedwater treatment before and after introduction of
the water into the boiler. The selection of pre-treatment
processes depends upon the water source, its chemical
characteristics, amount of makeup water needed, plant
operating practices, etc. Treating methods include filtering,
softening, de-mineralizing, deaerating, and preheating. Aftertreatment involves chemical treatment of the boiler water.
Because of the variables involved, no single boiler compound
can be considered a “cure-all” nor is it advisable to
experiment with homemade treating methods. Sound
recommendations and their employment should be
augmented by a periodic analysis of the feedwater, boiler
water, and condensate.
The internal or waterside surfaces of the pressure vessel
should be inspected with enough frequency to determine the
presence of any contamination, accumulations of foreign
matter, or corrosion, and/or pitting. If any of the conditions
are detected, contact your local Cleaver-Brooks authorized
representative for advice on corrective action.
A properly sized water meter should be installed in the raw
water make-up line in order to accurately determine the
amount of raw water admitted to the boiler (steam or hot
water) and to aid in maintaining proper waterside conditions.
D. CLEANING
1. HOT WATER AND STEAM PIPING
Steam and water piping systems connected to the boiler may
contain oil, grease, or foreign matter. The impurities must be
removed in order to prevent damage to pressure vessel
heating surfaces. On a steam system, the condensate should
be wasted until tests show the elimination of undesirable
impurities. During the period that condensate is wasted,
attention must be given to the treatment of the raw water used
as make-up so that an accumulation of unwanted materials or
corrosion does not occur. For more information, contact your
local Cleaver-Brooks authorized representative.
On a hot water system, chemical cleaning is generally
necessary and the entire system should be drained after
treatment. Consult your local Cleaver-Brooks authorized
representative for recommendations, cleaning compounds,
and application procedures.
3-5
Chapter 3
WATERSIDE CARE AND REQUIREMENTS
2. PRESSURE VESSEL
The waterside of the pressure vessel must be kept clean from
grease, sludge, and foreign material. Such deposits, if present,
will shorten the life of the pressure vessel, will interfere with
efficient operation and functioning of control of safety
devices, and quite possibly cause unnecessary and expensive
re-work, repairs, and down-time.
The installation and operating conditions that the boiler will
be subjected to should be considered and cleaning of the
waterside of the pressure vessel should be provided during
the course of initial start-up.
The pressure vessel and the steam and return lines or hot
water piping represent, in effect, a closed system. Although
the steam and return (condensate) lines or the hot water
piping system may have been previously cleaned, it is
possible that:
(1) Cleaning has been inadequate.
(2) Partial or total old system is involved.
(3) Conditions may prevent adequate cleaning of piping.
The pressure vessel waterside should be inspected on a
periodic basis. An inspection will reveal true internal
conditions and serve as a check against conditions indicated
by chemical analysis of the boiler water. Inspection should be
made three months after initial starting and at regular 6-, 9-,
or 12-month intervals thereafter. The frequency of further
periodic inspections will depend upon the internal conditions
found.
If any unwanted conditions are observed, contact your local
C l e a v e r - B r o o k s a u t h o r i z e d r e p r e s e n t a t iv e f o r
recommendations.
Any sludge, mud or sediment found will need to be flushed
out. If excessive mud of sludge is noticed during the
blowdown the scheduling or frequency of blowdown may
need to be revised. The need for periodic draining or washout
will also be indicated.
Any oil or grease present on the heating surfaces should be
removed promptly by a boil-out with an alkaline detergent
solution.
Note: Temperature of initial fill of water for
hydrostatic tests, boil-out, or for normal
operation should be as stated in the ASME
Boiler Code.
E. BOIL-OUT OF A NEW UNIT
The internal surfaces of a newly installed boiler may have oil,
grease or other protective coatings used in manufacturing.
Such coatings must be removed because they lower the heat
transfer rate and could cause over-heating of a tube. Before
boiling out procedures may begin, the burner should be ready
for firing. The operator must be familiar with the procedure
outlined under burner operation.
3-6
! WARNING
DANGER
Use of a suitable face mask, goggles, rubber
gloves, and protective garments must be
worn when handling or mixing caustic
chemicals. Do not permit the dry material or
the concentrated solution to come in
contact with skin or clothing. Failure to
follow these instructions could result in
serious personal injury or death
Your local Cleaver-Brooks authorized representative will be
able to recommend a cleaning or boil-out procedure. In the
event such service is unavailable or is yet unscheduled, the
following information may be of assistance.
There are several chemicals suitable for boil-out. One
combination often used is soda ash (sodium carbonate) and
caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) at the rate of 3 to 5 pounds
each per 1,000 pounds of water, along with a small amount of
laundry detergent added as a wetting agent.
The suggested general procedure for cleaning a boiler is as
follows:
(1) Refer to Figure 3-4 to determine water capacity. Have
sufficient cleaning material on hand to complete the job.
(2) When dissolving chemicals, the following procedure is
suggested. Warm water should be put into a suitable
container. Slowly introduce the dry chemical into the water,
stirring it at all times until the chemical is completely
dissolved. Add the chemical slowly and in small amounts to
prevent excessive heat and turbulence.
(3) An over-flow pipe should be attached to one of the top
boiler openings and routed to a safe point of discharge. A
relief or safety valve tapping is usually used.
(4) Water relief valves and steam safety valves must be
removed before adding the boil-out solution so that neither it
nor the grease which it may carry will contaminate the valves.
Use care in removing and reinstalling the valves.
Refer to Chapter 8, Section M for valve installation
instructions.

(5) All valves in the piping leading to or from the system must
be closed to prevent the cleaning solution from getting into
the system.
(6) Fill the pressure vessel with clean water until the top of the
tubes are covered. Add the cleaning solution and then fill to
the top. The temperature of the water used in the initial fill
should be at ambient temperature.
(7) The boiler should then be fired intermittently at a low rate
sufficient to hold solution just at the boiling point. Boil the
water for at least five hours. Do not produce steam pressure.
(8) Allow a small amount of fresh water to enter the boiler to
create a slight overflow that will carry off surface impurities.
(9) Continue the boil and overflow process until the water
clears. Shut the burner down.
(10) Let the boiler cool to 120°F or less.
! WARNING
DANGER
Be sure to drain the hot water to a safe point
of discharge to avoid scalding.Failure to
follow these instructions could result in
serious personal injury or death
(11) Remove handhole plates and wash the waterside surfaces
thoroughly using a high pressure water stream.
(12) Inspect the surfaces. If they are not clean, repeat the boil
out.
(13) After closing the handholes and reinstalling the safety or
relief valves, fill the boiler and fire it until the water is heated
to at least 180°F to drive off any dissolved gases, which might
otherwise corrode the metal.
The above procedure may be omitted in the case of a unit
previously used or known to be internally clean. However,
consideration must be given to the possibility of
contaminating materials entering the boiler from the system.
On a steam system, the condensate should be wasted until
tests show the elimination of undesirable impurities. During
the period that condensate is wasted, be sure make-up water
is treated to prevent an accumulation of unwanted materials
or corrosion.
On a hot water system, chemical cleaning is generally
necessary and the entire system should be drained after
treatment. Consult your local Cleaver-Brooks authorized
representative for recommendations, cleaning compounds,
and application procedures.
F. WASHING OUT
1. HOT WATER BOILER
In theory, a hot water system and boiler that has been initially
cleaned, filled with raw water (and water treated), and with no
750-91
Chapter 3
make-up water added, will require no further cleaning or
treatment. However, since the system (new or old) can allow
entrance of air and unnoticed or undetected leakage of water,
introductions of raw water make-up or air may lead to pitting,
corrosion and formation of sludge, sediment, scale, etc., on
the pressure vessel waterside.
If the operator is absolutely certain that the system is tight,
then an annual waterside inspection may be sufficient.
However, if there is any doubt, the pressure vessel waterside
should be inspected no later than three months after initially
placing the boiler into operation, and periodically thereafter
as indicated by conditions observed during inspections.
2. STEAM BOILER
No later than three months after initially placing the boiler
into operation and starting service, and thereafter as
conditions warrant, the pressure vessel should be drained
after being properly cooled to near ambient temperature.
Handhole covers should be removed and waterside surfaces
should be inspected for corrosion, pitting, or formation of
deposits.
Flushing of Pressure Vessel Interior
Upon completion of the inspection, the pressure vessel
interior should be flushed out, as required, with a high
pressure hose. If deposits are not fully removed by flushing, a
consultation may be required with your local Cleaver-Brooks
authorized representative. In extreme cases, it may be
necessary to resort to acid cleaning. Professional advice is
recommended if acid cleaning is required.
The inspections will indicate the effectiveness of the
feedwater treatment. The effectiveness of treatment, the water
conditions, and the amount of fresh water make-up required
are all factors to be considered in establishing frequency of
future pressure vessel washouts. Contact your local Cleaverbrooks authorized representative for more information.
G. BLOWDOWN STEAM BOILER
Boiler water blowdown is the removal of some of the
concentrated water from the pressure vessel and its
replacement with feedwater so that the lowering of the
concentration of solids in the boiler water occurs.
Solids are brought in by the feedwater even though the water
is treated prior to use through external processes that are
designed to remove unwanted substances which contribute to
scale and deposit formations. However, none of the processes
can remove all substances. Regardless of their high efficiency,
some solids will be present in the boiler feedwater.
Solids become less soluble in the high temperature of the
boiler water and tend to accumulate on heating surfaces.
Therefore blowdown and internal chemical treatment are
required to prevent the solids from forming harmful scale and
sludge.
3-7
Chapter 3
Scale has a low heat transfer value and acts as an insulation
barrier. Scale retards heat transfer, which not only results in
lower operating efficiency, and consequently higher fuel
consumption, but more importantly, can cause overheating of
boiler metal. Over heating of boiler metal can result in tube
failures or other pressure vessel metal damage and lead to
boiler down-time and costly repairs.
Scale is caused primarily by calcium and magnesium salts,
silica and oil. Any calcium and magnesium salts in the boiler
water are generally precipitated by the use of sodium
phosphate, along with organic materials, to maintain the
precipitates or “sludge” in a fluid form. The solids such as
sodium salts and suspended dirt do not readily form scale. But
as the boiler water boils off as relatively pure steam, the
remaining water is thickened with the solids. If the
concentration is permitted to accumulate, foaming and
priming will occur and the sludge can cause harmful deposits
that bring about overheating of the metal.
The lowering or removal of the concentration requires the use
of boiler water blowdown.
1. TYPES OF BLOWDOWN
There are two principal types of blowdown: intermittent
manual blowdown, and continuous blowdown.
Intermittent Manual Blowdown
Manual or sludge blowdown is necessary for the operation of
the boiler regardless of whether or not continuous blowdown
is employed.
The blowdown tappings are located at the bottom or lowest
part of the boiler in order to lower the dissolved solids in the
pressure vessel water, and to remove a portion of the sludge
that accumulates in the lower part of the vessel.
Equipment generally consists of a quick opening valve and a
shut-off valve. The valves and necessary piping are not
normally furnished with the boiler, but supplied by others. All
piping must be to a safe point of discharge. Piping must be
properly supported and free to expand.
Continuous Blowdown
Continuous blowdown is used in conjunction with a surface
blow-off tapping and is the continuous removal of
concentrated water.
The surface blow-off opening, when furnished, is on the top
center line of the pressure vessel. It is provided with an
internal collecting pipe terminating slightly below the
working water level for the purpose of skimming surface
sediment, oil or other impurities from the surface of the
pressure vessel water.
A controlled-orifice valve is used to allow a continual, yet
controlled, flow of concentrated water.
3-8
WATERSIDE CARE AND REQUIREMENTS
Periodic adjustments are made to the valve setting to increase
or decrease the amount of blowdown in accordance with the
test analysis.
The flow control valve and piping are generally provided by
others. All piping must be to a safe point of discharge.
Frequency of Manual Blowdown
When continuous blowdown is utilized, manual blowdown is
primarily used to remove suspended solids or sludge. The
continuous blowdown removes sediment and oil from the
surface of the water along with a prescribed amount of
dissolved solids.
When surface or continuous blowdown is not utilized, manual
blowdown is used to control the dissolved or suspended solids
in addition to the sludge.
In practice, the valve(s) of the bottom blowdown are opened
periodically in accordance with an operating schedule and/or
chemical control tests. From the standpoint of control,
economy and results, frequent short blows are preferred to
infrequent lengthy blows. The length and frequency of the
blwdown is particularly important when the suspended solids
content of the water is high. With the use of frequent short
blows a more uniform concentration of the pressure vessel
water is maintained.
In cases where the feedwater is exceptionally pure, or where
there is a high percentage of return condensate, blowdown
may be employed less frequently since less sludge
accumulates in the pressure vessel. When dissolved and/or
suspended solids approach or exceed predetermined limits,
manual blowdown to lower the concentrations is required.
It is generally recommended that a steam boiler be blown
down at least once in every eight-hour period, but frequency
may vary depending upon water and operating conditions.
T h e b l ow d ow n a m o u n t s a n d s c h e d u l e s h o u l d b e
recommended by your local Cleaver-Brooks authorized
representative.
A hot water boiler does not normally include openings for
surface blowdown and bottom blowdown since blowdowns
are seldom practiced. The need remains to be alert to system
water losses and corresponding amount of raw water makeup. A water meter is recommended for water make-up lines.
Manual Blowdown Procedure
Blowdown is most effective at a point in time when the
generation of steam is at the lowest rate and feedwater input
is also low, thus providing a minimum dilution of the boiler
water with low concentration feedwater.
Be sure the blow-off piping and tank, if used, are in proper
operating condition. Discharge vents should be clear of
obstruction, and the waste should be piped to a point of safe
discharge.
750-91
WATERSIDE CARE AND REQUIREMENTS
Most blow-off lines are provided with two valves, generally a
quick opening valve nearest the boiler and a slow opening
globe type valve downstream. Valves will vary depending
upon pressure involved and make or manufacturer. If seatless
va l v e s a r e i n s t a l l e d , f o l l ow t h e m a n u f a c t u r e r ’s
recommendations.
If a quick opening valve and globe type of slow opening valve
are in combination, the former is normally opened first and
closed last with blow down accomplished with the globe or
slow opening valve.
When opening the second or downstream valve, crack it
slightly to allow the lines to warm, then continue opening
slowly.
! CAUTION
DANGER
Do not pump the lever action valve open and
closed, as water hammer is apt to break the
valve bodies or pipe fittings. Failure to follow these instructions could cause damage
to the equipment.
The length of each blow should be determined by actual water
a n a l y s i s . L ow e r i n g t h e wa t e r i n t h e g a u g e g l a s s
approximately 1/2” is often acceptable as a guide to adequate
blow. However, lowering the water 1/2” should not be
interpreted as a rule since water analysis procedures should
prevail. If the glass cannot be viewed by the party operating
the valve, another operator should watch the glass and direct
the valve operator.
Close the downstream (slow opening) valve first and as fast as
possible. Then close the valve next to the boiler. Slightly
crack the downstream valve and then close it tightly.
Under no circumstances should a blow-off valve be left open
and the operator should never leave until the blowdown
operation is completed and the valves are closed.
H. PERIODIC INSPECTION
Insurance regulations or local laws will require a periodic
inspection of the pressure vessel by an authorized inspector.
Sufficient notice is generally given to permit removal of the
boiler from service and preparation for inspection.
! WARNING
DANGER
To avoid the hazard of electrical shock, use
a low voltage flashlight during an internal
inspection. Preferably, inspectors should
work in pairs. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in serious
personal injury or death.
When shutting down the boiler, the load should be reduced
gradually and the pressure vessel cooled at a rate that avoids
750-91
Chapter 3
damaging temperature differential that can cause harmful
stresses. Vessels should not normally be drained until all
pressure is relieved - again to prevent uneven contraction and
temperature differentials that can cause expanded tubes to
leak. Draining the unit too quickly may cause the baking of
deposits that may be present on the heating surfaces. Some
heat, however, may be desirable to dry out the interior of the
boiler.
If the internal inspection is being made at the request of an
authorized inspector, it is well to ask the inspector observe the
conditions prior to cleaning or flushing of waterside surfaces.
Be certain that a supply of manhole and handhole gaskets is
available, along with any other gaskets or items needed to
place the unit back into operation after inspection.
Have available information on the boiler design, dimensions,
generating capacity, operating pressure or temperature, time
in service, defects found previously, and any repairs or
modifications. Also have available for reference records of
previous inspections.
Be prepared to perform any testing required by the inspector
including a hydrostatic test.
After proper cooling and draining of the vessel, flush out the
waterside with a high pressure water hose. Remove any scale
or deposits from the waterside surfaces and check for internal
or external corrosion and leakage.
The fireside surface should also be thoroughly cleaned so that
metal surfaces, welds, joints, tube ends, fittings and any
previous repairs can be readily checked.
Be sure that steam valves, and valves to expansion tank (hot
water), feedwater valves, blow-off valves, all fuel valves,
valves to expansion tank, and electrical switches are shut off
prior to opening handholes, manhole and front or rear doors.
Adequately vent the pressure vessel prior to entry.
Clean out the low-water cutoff piping, the water level controls
and cross-connecting pipes. Replace the water gauge glass
and clean out the water cocks. Also check and clean the drain
and the blowdown valves and piping.
Check all water and steam piping and valves for leaks, wear,
corrosion, and other damage. Replace or repair as required.
I. PREPARATION FOR EXTENDED
LAY-UP
Many boilers used for heating or seasonal loads or for standby service may have extended periods of non-use. Special
attention must be given to idle boilers so that neither
waterside nor fireside surfaces are allowed to deteriorate from
corrosion.
Too many conditions exist to lay down definite rules. There
are two methods of storage: wet or dry. Your local CleaverBrooks authorized representative can recommend the better
3-9
Chapter 3
method depending upon circumstances in the particular
installation.
Whichever method is used, common sense dictates a periodic
recheck of fireside and waterside conditions during lay-up to
allow variations from the above methods for special area or
job-site conditions.
Swing open the boiler head at the stack end of the unit to
prevent flow of warm, moist air through the boiler tubes.
Although pollution control regulations may continue to limit
the permissible sulphur content of fuel oils, care must be
taken to avoid corrosion problems that sulphur can cause,
especially in a boiler that is seasonally shut town. Dormant
periods, and even frequent shutdowns, expose the fireside
surfaces to condensation below the dew point during cooling.
Moisture and any sulphur residue can form an acid solution.
Under certain conditions, and especially in areas with high
humidity, the corrosive effect of the acid will be serious
enough to eat through or severely damage boiler tubes or
other metal heating surfaces during the time that a boiler is
out of service.
WATERSIDE CARE AND REQUIREMENTS
Damper and vents should be closed to prevent air from
reaching fireside surfaces. Periodic inspection should be
made and absorption materials renewed.
Wet storage is generally used for a boiler held in stand-by
condition or in cases where dry storage is not practical. The
possibility of freezing temperatures must be considered. Care
must again be taken to protect metal surfaces. Variables
preclude definite recommendations. However, it is suggested
that the pressure vessel be drained, thoroughly cleaned
internally, and re-filled to overflowing with treated water. If
deaerated water is not available, the unit should be fired to
boil the water for a short period of time. Additional chemicals
may be suggested by your local Cleaver-Brooks authorized
representative to minimize corrosion. Internal water pressure
should be maintained at greater than atmospheric pressure.
Nitrogen is often used to pressurize the vessel. Fireside
surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned and refractory should be
wash-coated.
The condition does not generally occur during normal firing
operation, because the high temperature of operation
vaporizes any condensation. However, proper boiler
operation must be maintained, especially with a hot water
boiler, to prevent the flue gases from falling below the dew
point.
At the start of lay-up, thoroughly clean the fireside by
removing any soot or other products of combustion from the
tubes, tube sheets and other fireside surfaces. Brushing will
generally suffice. Sweep away or vacuum any accumulation.
The fireside surfaces may be flushed with water. However, all
moisture must be eliminated after flushing and the surface
dried by blowing air or applying some form of heat. It is good
practice to protect the cleaned surfaces by coating them with
an anti-corrosive material to prevent rust.
To prevent condensation from forming in the control cabinet,
keep the control circuit energized. For extended lay-up
periods, especially where high humidity or large swings in
ambient temperature occur, the program relay should be
removed and stored in a dry atmosphere.
Dry storage is generally employed when the boiler will be out
of service for a significant period of time, or where freezing
temperatures may exist. In the dry storage method the boiler
must be thoroughly dried because any moisture would cause
corrosion. Both fireside and waterside surfaces must be
cleaned of all scale, deposits, soot, etc. Steps must be taken to
eliminate moisture by placing moisture-absorbing materials
such as quick lime (at 2 pounds for 3 cubic feet of volume) or
silica gel (at 5 pounds for 30 cubic feet of volume) on trays
inside the vessel. Fireside surfaces may be coated with an
anti-corrosive material, or grease or tar paint. Refractories
should be brushed clean and wash-coated. All openings to the
pressure vessel, such as manhole and handholes, should be
shut tightly. Feedwater and steam valves should be closed.

A. GENERAL
Chapter 4 outlines the electrical sequencing of various
controls through the pre-purge, ignition, run, and shutdown
cycles of the burner.
The program relay establishes the sequence of operation and
directs the operation of all other controls and components to
provide an overall operating sequence.
Note: The make or model of the program
relay provided will vary depending upon job
specifications. The following sequence
applies regardless of the make or model.
Please refer to the Wiring Diagram (WD)
prepared by Cleaver-Brooks for your
specific installation.
Abbreviations for the various electrical components are listed
in Figure 4-1. The sequences outlined in Chapter 4 employ
specific nomenclature to aid in applying the text to the wiring
diagram.
The burner and control system are in starting condition when
the following conditions exist:
• Boiler water is up to the correct level, closing the lowwater cutoff switch.
The sequences do not attempt to correlate the action of the
fuel supply system or feedwater system except for the
interlock controls that directly relate to the action of the
program relay. Chapters 6 and 7 contain operating
instructions and specific information on setting and adjusting
the controls.
B. CIRCUIT AND INTERLOCK
CONTROLS
The burner control circuit is a two-wire system designed for
115 Vac, 60 Hz, single-phase power.
The electrical portion of the boiler is made up of individual
circuits with controls that are wired in a manner designed to
provide a safe workable system. The program relay provides
connection points for the interconnection of the various
circuits.
The controls used vary depending upon the fuel oil or gas and
the specific requirement of applicable regulatory bodies.
Refer to the boiler wiring diagram to determine the actual
controls provided. The circuits and controls normally used in
the circuits follow and are referred to in the following
sequence of operation.

4-2
On a combination fuel unit, the gas/oil switch must be set for
the proper fuel.
The following sequence occurs with power present at the
program relay (PR) input terminals and with all other
operating conditions satisfied.
Pre-Purge Cycle - When the burner switch (BS) is turned
“on,” and controls wired in the “limit” and “fuel valve
interlock” circuits are closed and no flame signal is present,
the “blower motor start circuit” is powered energizing the
blower motor starter (BMS). The load demand light (LDL)
turns on. When firing oil, the air compressor motor starter
(ACMS) (if provided) is also powered. Air purge valve (APV)
(Nos. 5 and 6 oil only) remains deenergized.
At the same time, the program relay signals the modulating
damper motor (MDM) to open the air damper. The damper
begins to open and drives to its full open or high fire position.
Opening the damper motor allows a flow of purging air
through the boiler prior to the ignition cycle.
On certain boilers the circuitry will include a high fire switch
(HFS). The purpose of the switch is to prove that the
modulating damper motor (MDM) has driven the damper to
the open position during the pre-purge cycle. In this instance,
the “high fire proving circuit” is utilized.
The controls wired into the “running interlock circuit” must
be closed within 10 seconds after the start sequence. In the
event any of the controls are not closed at this time, or if they
subsequently open, the program relay will go into a safety
shutdown.
At the completion of the high fire purge period, the program
relay signals the modulating damper motor (MDM) to drive
the air damper to its low fire position.
To assure that the system is in low fire position prior to
ignition, the low fire switch (LFS) must be closed to complete
the “low fire proving circuit.” The sequence will stop and hold
until the modulating damper motor (MDM) has returned to
the low fire position and the contacts of the low fire switch
(LFS) are closed. Once the low fire switch is closed, the
sequence is allowed to continue.
750-91
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Note: The ignition trial cannot be started if
flame or a flame simulating condition is
sensed during the pre-purge period. A
safety shutdown will occur if flame is
sensed at this time.
Ignition Cycle - The ignition transformer (IT) and gas pilot
valve (GPV) are energized from the appropriate pilot ignition
terminal.
Note: An oil-fired burner may be equipped
with an oil pilot rather than a gas pilot. The
ignition sequence of both is identical.
The pilot flame must be established and proven by the flame
detector (FD) within a 10 second period in order for the
ignition cycle to continue. If for any reason this does not
happen, the system will shut down and safety lockout will
occur.
Note: Depending upon the requirements of
the regulatory body, insurer or fuel being
burned, either the 10 or 15 second pilot
ignition terminal may be used. Both provide
the same function but differ in time interval
allowed for proving main flame ignition.
Refer to the boiler wiring diagram.
With a proven pilot, the main fuel valve(s) (OV or MGV) is
energized and the main fuel valve light (FVL) in the panel is
lighted. The main flame is ignited and the trial period for
proving the main flame begins. It lasts 10 seconds for light oil
and natural gas, and 15 seconds for heavy oil. At the end of
the proving period, if the flame detector still detects main
flame, the ignition transformer and pilot valve are
deenergized and pilot flame is extinguished.
Note: If the main flame does not light, or
stay lit, the fuel valve will close. The safety
switch will trip to lock out the control. Refer
to flame loss sequence (section D) for
description of action.
! WARNING
DANGER
The cause for loss of flame or any other
unusual condition should be investigated
and corrected before attempting to restart.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in serious personal injury or death
Run Cycle - With main flame established, the program relay
releases the modulating damper motor (MDM) from its low
fire position to control by either the manual flame control
(MFC) or the modulating control (MC), depending upon the
position of the manual-automatic switch (MAS). This allows
operation in ranges above low fire.
With the manual-automatic switch (MAS) set at automatic,
subsequent modulated firing will be at the command of the
modulating control (MC), which governs the position of the
modulating damper motor (MDM). The air damper and fuel
750-91
Chapter 4
valves are actuated by the motor through a linkage and cam
assembly to provide modulated firing rates.
Note: Normal operation of the burner should
be with the switch in the manual-automatic
position and under the direction of the
modulating control. The manual position is
provided for initial adjustment of the burner
ov e r t h e e n t i r e fi r i n g r a n g e . W h e n a
shutdown occurs while operating in the
manual position at other than low fire, the
damper will not be in a closed position, thus
allowing more air than desired to flow
through the boiler. Excess air flow subjects
the pressure vessel metal and refractory to
undesirable conditions. The effectiveness
of nozzle purging is lost on a No. 6 oil
burner.
The burner starting cycle is now complete. The (LDL) and
(FVL) lights on the panel remain lit. Demand firing continues
as required by load conditions.
Burner Shudown-Post Purge - The burner will fire until
steam pressure or water temperature in excess of demand is
generated. With modulated firing, the modulating damper
motor (MDM) should return to the low fire position before the
operating limit control (OLC) opens. When the limit control
circuit is opened, the following sequence occurs:
The main fuel valve circuit is deenergized, causing the main
fuel valve (MGV) or (OV) to close. The flame is extinguished.
The control panel lights (LDL) and (FVL) are turned off. The
blower motor continues to run to force air through the boiler
for the post purge period.
On a No. 6 oil burner, the air purge valve (APV) is powered
from the blower motor start circuit via the contacts of the air
purge relay (APR) to provide an air purge of the oil nozzle.
The damper motor returns to the low fire position if it is not
already in that position.
The blower motor start circuit is deenergized at the end of the
post purge cycle and the shutdown cycle is complete.
The program relay is now ready for subsequent recycling, and
when steam pressure or water temperature drops to close the
contacts of the operating control, the burner again goes
through its normal starting and operating cycle.
D. FLAME LOSS SEQUENCE
The program relay will recycle automatically each time the
operating control closes, or after a power failure. It will
lockout following a safety shutdown caused by failure to
ignite the pilot, or the main flame, or by loss of flame.
Lockout will also occur if flame or flame simulating condition
occurs during the prepurge period.
The control will prevent start-up or ignition if limit circuit
controls or fuel valve interlocks are open. The control will
lock out upon any abnormal condition affecting air
supervisory controls wired in the running interlock circuit.

Chapter 4
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
! WARNING
DANGER
The lockout switch must be manually reset
following a safety shutdown. The cause for
loss of flame or any unusual condition
should be investigated and corrected before
attempting to restart. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in serious
personal injury or death.
1.
No pilot flame.
The pilot flame must be ignited and proven within a 10second period after the ignition cycle begins. If not proven
within this period, the main fuel valve circuit will not be
powered and the fuel valve(s) will not be energized. The
ignition circuit is immediately deenergized and the pilot valve
closes, the reset switch lights and lockout occurs
immediately.
The blower motor will continue to operate. The flame failure
light and the alarm bell (optional) are energized 10 seconds
later.
The blower motor will be deenergized. The lockout switch
must be manually reset before operation can be resumed.
(Refer to the previous caution.)
2.
technical bulletin should be referred to for assistance in
pinpointing problems that may not be readily apparent.
The program relay has the capability to self-diagnose and to
display a code or message that indicates the failure condition.
Refer to the control bulletin for specifics and suggested
remedies. Familiarity with the program relay and other
controls in the system can be obtained by studying the
contents of the manual and this bulletin.
Knowledge of the system and its controls will make
troubleshooting much easier. Costly down time or delays can
be prevented by systematic checks of the actual operation
against the normal sequence to determine the stage at which
performance deviates from normal. Following a routine may
possibly eliminate overlooking an obvious condition, often
one that is relatively simple to correct.
Remember, a safety device, for the most part, is doing its job
when it shuts down or refuses to operate. Never attempt to
circumvent any of the safety features.
Preventive maintenance and scheduled inspection of all
components should be followed. Periodic checking of the
relay is recommended to see that a safety lockout will occur
under conditions of failure to ignite either pilot or main flame,
or from loss of flame.
Pilot but no main flame.
When the pilot flame is proven, the main fuel valve circuit is
energized. Depending upon the length of the trial-for-ignition
period, the pilot flame will be extinguished 10 or 15 seconds
later. The flame detecting circuit will respond to deenergize
the main fuel valve circuit within 2 to 4 seconds to stop the
flow of fuel. The reset switch lights and lockout occurs
immediately. The blower motor will continue to operate.
The flame failure light and alarm bell (optional) are energized
10 seconds later.
The blower motor will be deenergized. The lockout switch
must be manually reset before operation can be resumed.
(Refer to the previous caution.)
3.
Loss of flame.
If a flame outage occurs during normal operation and/or the
flame is no longer sensed by the detector, the flame relay will
trip within 2 to 4 seconds to deenergize the fuel valve circuit
and shut off the fuel flow. The reset switch lights and lockout
occurs immediately. The blower motor continues operation.
The flame failure light and alarm bell (optional) are energized
10 seconds later.
The blower motor will be deenergized. The lockout switch
must be manually reset before operation can be resumed.
(Refer to the previous caution.)
If the burner will not start, or upon a safety lockout, the

Note: If your boiler is equipped with a CBH AW K  b o i l e r m a n a g e m e n t c o n t ro l
system, refer to CB-HAWK Installation,
Operating and Servicing Manual No. 750133 for specific information regarding
procedures described in section A.
A. GENERAL PREPARATION FOR
START-UP, ALL FUELS
Instructions in Chapter 5 are all based upon installation being
complete and all electrical, fuel, water and vent stack
connections are made.
The operator should be familiar with the burner, boiler, and
all controls and components. To quickly locate and identify
the various controls and components mentioned in the
following paragraphs, refer to the illustrations and the
contents of Chapters 1, 2 and 3. Instructions for adjusting
major components are given in Chapter 6 this should be
reviewed prior to firing. The wiring diagram should also have
been studied, along with the firing sequence outlined in
Chapter 4.
! WARNING
DANGER
Be sure the starting instructions be read
completely until they are thoroughly
understood, before attempting to operate
the boiler, rather than performing each
operation as it is read for the first time.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in serious personal injury or death.
Verify supply of fuel and proper voltage. Check for blown
fuses, open circuit breakers, dropped out overloads, etc.
Check reset of all starters and controls having manual reset
750-91
features. Check the lockout switch on the programmer and
reset if necessary.
The boiler should be filled with water to the proper operating
level using water of ambient temperature. Be sure that treated
feedwater is available and used. In heating applications, the
entire system should be filled and vented. Refer to Chapter 3
for water requirements. On a steam boiler, open the test valve
(Figure 1-7) to vent air displaced during filling. Leave the test
valve open until the escape of steam is noted after the burner
is operating.
! WARNING
DANGER
P r i o r t o fi r i n g a b o i l e r, b e s u r e t h a t
discharge piping from safety valves or relief
valves, and discharge piping from all
blowdown and drain valves, is piped to a
SAFE point of discharge, so that discharge
of hot water or steam cannot possibly cause
injury. Failure to follow these instructions
could result in serious personal injury or
death.
Check all linkage for full and free movement of the damper
and metering valves and cams. The check can be done by
loosening the linkage at the damper motor connecting arm
and manipulating the linkage by hand.
Check for rotation of all motors by momentarily closing the
motor starter or relay. The blower impeller rotation is
counter-clockwise for the CB-LE, when viewed from the
front of the boiler (see Figure 5-1). The air pump rotation
is clockwise when viewed from its drive end (see Figure 52). When operating a standard 78” boiler the fan motor
and air pump should rotate counterclockwise (see Figure
5-3).
5-1
Chapter 5
STARTING AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before operating the boiler feed pump or oil supply pump, be
sure all valves in the line are open or properly positioned.
For safety reasons, perform a final pre-startup inspection,
especially checking for any loose or incomplete piping or
wiring or any other situations that might present a hazard.
Note: The pressure vessel support legs are
welded to mounting skids in front and
secured by bolts at the rear of the pressure
vessel. The bolts are tightened for shipment.
When the boiler is installed, and prior to
initial firing, the bolts securing the rear legs
to the skid must be loosened to allow for
expansion and contraction caused by
differences in temperature between
pressure vessel and skids and to avoid
damage to the equipment.

Figure: 5-1 Fan Motor CB-LE
See Chapter 6 for adjustment instructions for the following
controls.
Inspect the Operating Limit Control for proper setting.
1.
The operating limit pressure control of a steam boiler
should be set slightly above the highest desired steam
pressure, but at least 10% lower than the setting of the
safety valve.
2.
The operating limit temperature control on a hot water
boiler should be set slightly above the highest desired
water temperature and within the limits of the pressure
vessel.
Inspect the High Limit Control for proper setting.
AIR COMPRESSOR ROTATION
CLOCKWISE FROM DRIVE END
1.
On a high pressure steam boiler, the high limit pressure
control should be set approximately 10 psig above the
operating limit pressure control setting, if feasible, or
midway between the operating limit pressure and the
safety valve setting. The setting on a low pressure steam
boiler may be 2 o r 3 psig above the operating limit
setting, but must not exceed the safety valve setting.
2.
On a hot water boiler, the high limit temperature control
should be 5-10°F above the operating limit temperature
control setting but within the limits of the design pressure
of the pressure vessel.
Figure: 5-2 Air Compressor
Inspect the Modulating Control for proper setting. The
control must be set and adjusted so that the modulating motor
returns to low fire position before the operating limit control
opens. It is further desirable to have its low point setting
somewhat below the cut-in setting of the limit control so that
the burner operates in low fire position for a brief period on
each start rather than immediately driving to a high fire
position.

STARTING AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Chapter 5
Note: The settings of all the above controls
may require some readjustment after the
boiler is started and running for a short
period. The scale settings on the controls
are relatively accurate, but are principally
for use as guides. Final adjustment should
be based on and agree with the reading of
the steam pressure gauge or the water
temperature thermometer.

Inspect the Low-water Cutoff and Pump Control as well as
the Auxiliary Low-water Cutoff (if equipped with this
optional device). Check for freedom of float movement. Float
movement can be verified by observing the level of water in
the gauge glass when the water supply has been cut off either
by the stopping of the feed pump or by the closing of a valve,
and the restarting of the pump or opening of the valve when
water is drained from the pressure vessel. The importance of
proper functioning of low-water controls cannot be overemphasized. Be sure that the control and the piping is level.

your local Cleaver-Brooks authorized representative or
contact Cleaver-Brooks.
On initial start-up or whenever the boiler is placed into
operation from a “cold” start, the Manual-automatic
Selector Switch should be set at “manual” and the Manual
Flame Control set at “close.” After the boiler is in operation
and thoroughly warmed, the selector switch should be turned
to “automatic,” so that the burner firing rate may be controlled
by the Modulating Control in accordance with load
demands.

C. GAS PILOT
The gas pilot should be checked for satisfactory performance
prior to initial firing. Follow the pilot flame adjustment
instructions given in Chapter 6.
On initial starting attempts, several efforts might be required
to fully bleed the pilot line. While checking pilot adjustment,
observe whether the pilot flame is extinguished promptly
when the burner switch is opened. A lingering flame indicates
a leaking gas pilot valve, which is a condition requiring
correction before proceeding.
D. ATOMIZING AIR
The supply and pressure of the atomizing air on an oil-fired
burner should be checked. Before starting, inspect the oil
pump lube oil level. Add oil if necessary to bring the level to
the mid-point or slightly higher of the sight glass. Use SAE

Check the oil level of the air intake strainer. When operating
a standard 78” boiler, make certain that the V-belt which
drives the air pump is in place and has proper tension.
To verify air flow and pressure, place the burner Run/test
Switch on the program relay to the test position. If the burner
is a combination fuel burner, be sure that the gas/oil selector
switch is set to “oil.” Turn the Burner Switch on. The burner
will cycle to the low fire pre-purge position and stop there.
Observe the reading on the air pressure gauge (Figure 5-4).
With no oil flow, the pressure should be a minimum of 7 psi.
If there is no pressure, determine the cause and correct it
before proceeding. Check for obstructions in the air inlet line,
incorrect rotation, or a loose oil nozzle or other leaks. If the
pressure is much higher without any oil flow, check for
obstruction in the discharge line or at the oil nozzle. If there
is no obstruction, restrict the air flow by adjusting the air
intake valve screw, (see Figure 5-6)
The air pressure will increase when an oil flow exists. At low
firing rate, the air pressure may rise to 12 psi or more.
CONTROL VALVE
Figure: 5-6 Air Intake Control Valve
Note: The air pressure should not exceed 35
psi at high fire. Greater air pressure causes
excessive wear of the air pump, increases
lube oil usage, and can overload the motor,
thus causing damage to the equipment.
Note: Abnormally high pressure indicated
on the nozzle air pressure gauge is an
indication that the burner nozzle has
become clogged. In the event of clogging,
check the nozzle and clean as necessary.
After air flow has been verified, turn the burner switch off and
return the run/test switch to the run position.

fluids such as kerosene should not be used for priming.
Prior to priming the suction line and the initial start, check to
make certain that all plugs, connections, etc., have been
securely tightened to prevent leaks.
If the fuel oil supply originates from a pressurized loop, it is
assumed that the pressure of the loop will be at a minimum of
75 psi. Under these conditions, the relief valve at the terminal
block should be adjusted to the point where it becomes
inoperative (or removed and openings plugged). To render
inoperative, turn the adjusting screw in as far as possible.

Venting the suction line can generally be accomplished by
cracking a union fitting, or by opening the cap of the oil
strainer using care to prevent spillage of oil. Tighten the
fitting or the cap as soon as oil flow appears.
If the oil supply tank is below the level of the oil pump, it is
MANDATORY that the suction line to the pump be
completely filled with oil prior to starting the pump to avoid

PRESSURE
RELIEF
ADJUSTMENT
A standard equipped boiler has a selector switch incorporated
in the oil pump motor starter. Momentarily energize the
starter to check for proper pump rotation. With the rotation
verified, operate the pump to determine that oil circulation
exists. Observe the regulated oil pressure gauge for indication
that flow is established. If no pressure shows on the gauge
after a few moments, stop the oil pump and re-prime. If the
supply tank is lower than the pump, it is possible that the
initial priming of the suction line, followed by operation of
the pump, will not establish oil flow. This might be caused by
obstruction in the suction line, excessive lift, inadequate
priming, suction line leaks, etc. If oil flow is not readily
established, avoid prolonged operation of the pump to
minimize risk of damage to internal parts of the pump. If oil
flow is not established after a second or third priming
attempt, a full investigation is required to determine the
cause.
A vacuum (or a compound pressure-vacuum) gauge should
be installed at the suction port of the pump and its reading
observed and recorded for future guidance. If a vacuum
condition exists, the reading will reveal the tightness of the
system. It is advisable to maintain the vacuum reading at less
than 10" Hg. A vacuum in excess of 10" Hg. may allow oil to
vaporize, causing cavitation, loss of prime, and unstable
firing condition.
Oil Pressure - Oil supply pressure is regulated by adjusting
the pressure relief valve at the oil terminal block (Figure 213). A pressure gauge should be installed in the terminal
block and the relief valve adjusted to obtain a minimum
reading of 75 psi when the burner is firing at maximum rate.
When oil is supplied from a pressurized loop to a multiple
boiler installation, the relief valve in the loop should be
properly adjusted to provide this reading. In this
circumstance, the relief valve at the terminal block should be
adjusted to the point when it will be inoperative (or removed
and openings plugged). To render inoperative, turn the
adjusting screw in as far as possible.

pressure regulator so that the oil burner gauge registers
approximately 35 psi.
The pressure gauge will indicate a higher reading when the
flame is present and will increase as the firing rate increases.
After the burner is firing and when the air pump is running,
final adjustment can be made at the fuel oil controller.
Final regulation of oil flow to the nozzle can be done later, if
necessary, by adjusting the metering cam screws as outlined
in Chapter 6.
Starting - When all the conditions covered above and in
Sections A, B, C and D are assured, the burner is ready for
firing. Refer to Section H of Chapter 5 for further starting and
operating information.
F. FIRING PREPARATION FOR NO. 6
OIL (SERIES 400-600)
Prior to initial firing, oil flow, pressure and temperature
should be established and verified. Atomizing air pressure
should also be established as outlined in Section D. The
schematic flow diagram (Figure 2-19) indicates the flow of
fuel and atomizing air. Prior to firing, attach combustion
analysis instruments and monitor consistently
throughout the startup sequence. Refer to the adjustment
procedures in Chapter 6.
If the boiler is a combination fuel model, be certain that the
main gas shutoff cock is closed and set the gas/oil selector
switch to “oil.” Insert the burner drawer gun into its most
forward position and latch it in place (see Figure 5-6, 5-7).
Oil Flow - Open all valves in the oil suction and oil return
lines. Open the By-pass Valve on the fuel oil controller
(Figure 5-9) until oil flow is established. Normally, the
Orifice Valve is left in a closed position. However, on cold
starts, it may be opened for brief periods to aid in establishing
oil flow. The by-pass and orifice valves must be returned to
their closed positions as soon as oil flow is established as
indicated by a reading on the oil supply pressure gauge
(Figures 5-9). Do not attempt to set pressures while valves are
open.
Momentarily energize the fuel oil pump starter to check for
proper pump rotation. With the rotation verified, prime the
suction line strainer with oil and turn the fuel oil pump switch
to the "ON" position. Check the oil supply pressure gauge for
indication that oil flow is established. If no pressure shows on
the gauge after a few moments, stop the oil pump and reprime. Heavy oil in the storage tank must be at a temperature
to provide oil viscosity to permit flow through the oil pump
and suction line. If oil flow is not established after several
attempts, the conditions preventing oil flow must be
determined and corrected to avoid damage to the pump’s
internal mechanism.
A vacuum gauge should be installed in the oil suction line and
its reading observed and recorded for future guidance.
5-6
Figure: 5-12 Heavy Oil Fuel Controller
Oil Pressure - Oil pressure is regulated at several points. The
first is at the relief valve at the oil heater (Figures 2-17). The
relief valve should be set so that at maximum firing rate a
minimum reading of 75 psi is obtained on the oil supply
pressure gauge.
The other pressure adjustments are to the regulators on the
fuel oil controller (Figure 5-8, 5-9). Both the pressure
regulating and the back pressure relief valves are equipped
with tubing that directs and adds atomizing air pressure to the
adjustable spring pressure. Since the air pump is not running
at this time, only tentative adjustments can be made. Without
the air supply, adjust the fuel oil pressure regulator so that the
burner oil gauge registers approximately 35 psi. Adjust the
back pressure relief valve so that its gauge reads about 10 psi
less than the burner gauge.
After the burner is firing, further adjustments can be made, if
necessary, to the valves.
The pressure gauges will indicate higher readings when a
flame is present. The pressure will increase as the firing rate
increases. The pressure reading on the two gauges on the
controller will, despite the fluctuation, retain a nearly
constant difference of 10 psi.
Final regulation of oil flow to the nozzle can be done, if
necessary, by adjusting the metering cam screws as outlined
in Chapter 6.

DANGER
Before turning on the electric oil heater
switch, be certain that the heater shell is
filled with fuel oil and the flow is established. Failure to follow these instructions
could result in equipment damage.
750-91
STARTING AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Oil Temperature - After determining that the heater shell is
filled and that fuel oil circulation exists, turn the oil heater
switch to “on.” Adjust the electric oil heater thermostat
(Figures 2-17) to maintain oil temperature at approximately
200°F.
The electric heater on burners equipped for No. 6 fuel oil is
sized so that it is capable of supplying heated oil at a rate no
greater than that required for low fire operation and is
primarily supplied for convenience on cold starts. Heating
coils utilizing either steam or hot water are supplied to
provide sufficient heat so that higher rates of firing can be
accomplished once steam pressure or hot water is available.
In normal operation, the thermostat governing the electric
heating element is kept at a lower setting than the thermostat
governing admission of steam to the heater, or of hot water
circulation, so that heating is not performed electrically
except when steam or hot water is not available.
Chapter 5
at the point approximately 30 ° F lower than the normal
burning temperature. If the system is equipped with a high oil
temperature switch, it should be set to open at 20 -30°F higher
than normal burning temperature.
Note: The maximum oil temperature allowed
in the system is 250°F.
Starting - When all the conditions covered above and in
Sections A, B, C and D are assured, the burner is ready for
firing. Refer to Section H of Chapter 5 for further starting and
operating information.
G. FIRING PREPARATIONS FOR GAS
(SERIES 200-400-700)
• Prior to initial starting, check the linkage attached to the gas
butterfly valve to assure that movement is free from binding.
Set the steam thermostat (Figure 2-17) or the hot water
thermostat (Figure 2-17) to maintain an oil temperature of
220-230 ° F. The electric heater will be turned off
automatically as soon as steam or hot water provides heat.
• Verify the presence and availability of gas. On a new
installation, representatives of the gas utility should be
present when gas first flows into the system to supervise
purging of the new gas line, unless they have already done so.
Note: The temperatures listed are tentative.
The composition of the fuel oil in a given
grade can vary, necessitating a higher or
lower preheating temperature. The viscosity
of the oil at the nozzle should be less than
300 SSU and preferably less than 150 SSU.
The actual temperature of the oil at the
burner should be determined by flame
appearance and good combustion based on
a s t a ck a n a l y s i s . S e e C h a p t e r 5 fo r
additional information.
• Determine that the pilot is operating properly, as outlined in
Section C, Chapter 5.
Close the manual by-pass valve after the temperature rise on
the fuel oil controller thermometer is noted. Be certain that
hot oil is moving through the controller. The orifice gate valve
must also be closed. If the temperature drops, open the orifice
gate valve until a rise is noted, then close it.
Once the correct setting of the heater thermostats has been
established, set the low oil temperature switch (Figures 2-17)
• Determine that sufficient pressure exists at the entrance to
the gas train by installing a test gauge downstream of the
regulator.
• The gas pressure regulator must be adjusted to the proper
pressure level. Since the regulator is generally supplied by
others, adjustment should proceed according to instructions
supplied by its manufacturer.
It is necessary for the operator to know the burner
requirements in gas quantity and pressure. The information
can generally be found on the Dimension Diagram (DD)
supplied by Cleaver-Brooks for the specific installation.
Should the information not be readily available, consult the
Cleaver-Brooks Service Department giving the boiler serial
number. Chapter 6 contains additional information along with
standard gas flow and pressure requirements.
• If the burner is a combination fuel model, set the gas/oil
switch to “gas.” Withdraw the oil burner gun and latch it in its
rearward position (Figure 5-10).
Figure: 5-13 Oil Gun Locked in OUT Position
750-91
• On initial start-up, it is recommended that the main gas
shutoff cock (Figure 2-12) remains closed until the
programmer has cycled through prepurge and pilot
sequences. When the fuel light on the control panel comes on,
observe the action of the motorized gas valve stem to
determine that it opens when energized. As soon as it is
confirmed, turn the burner switch “OFF” and let programmer
finish its cycle. Check that the gas valve has closed. Again,
turn the burner “ON”. When the fuel valve light glows, slowly
open the main gas cock. Main flame should ignite unless there
is air present in the line. If the flame is not established within
about 5 seconds, turn the burner switch “off” and allow the

STARTING AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
programmer to recycle normally for a new lighting trial.
Several efforts may be necessary to “bleed” air from the line.
! WARNING
DANGER
Do not repeat unsuccessful lighting
attempts without re-checking the burner
and pilot adjustments. Failure to follow
these instructions could result in serious
personal injury or death
Note: The burner and control system is
designed to provide a “prepurge” period of
fan operation prior to establishing ignition
spark and pilot flame. Do not attempt to alter
the system or to take any action that might
circumvent the feature.
Once the main flame is established, turn the Burner Switch
to the "OFF" position and observe that the flame is
extinguished promptly. The flame may continue to burn for a
second or two after normal shutdown due to the gas
remaining downstream from the fuel valve. If the flame
continues to burn for a longer period or during blower motor
spindown, it could indicate a main gas valve leak.
Immediately turn the Burner Switch off and close the main
gas cock. Investigate and correct the cause of the valve
leakage before relighting the burner. The main gas valve
should provide a tight seal, provided nothing prevents
tight closure. Foreign material may be present in either
the new or renovated gas lines unless adequate care is
taken in cleaning and purging.
When the conditions covered in Section G and in Sections A,
B and C are assured, the burner is ready for firing. Refer to
Section H, Chapter 5 for further starting and operating
information.
H. IFGR SETUP
Note: Initial IFGR linkage settings and
adjustments must be established by a
Cleaver-Brooks authorized representative.
Set up of the LE Option requires
simultaneous consideration of air-to-fuel
ratios and NOx levels. This can only be
accomplished with proper combustion
emissions monitoring equipment with NOx,
O 2 , C O, a n d s m o k e s p o t m e a s u r i n g
capability.
It is recommended that the final “installed” settings as noted
on Figure 5-11, 5-12 and 5-13 be recorded for future
reference. The settings should be marked on the linkage as
well.
Normally, once the system has been set and adjusted, the
settings should not be changed unless conditions
(including boiler settings) change. In that case, it will be
necessary to contact your local Cleaver-Brooks
authorized representative for assistance.

After the IFGR system is initially set up, it will start up with
the boiler as an integrated boiler system. After shut down
periods in which maintenance and /or adjustments have been
performed on the fuel cams, fuel and air linkages, or IFGR
control linkages, the recommended approach to start-up is
as follows:
1. Set all boiler components to their initial settings as
discussed in the appropriate chapters of this Operation and
Maintenance manual.
2. Check fan impeller and motor rotation. Correct rotation is
counter-clockwise when viewed from the front of the
boiler.
3. Verify that all the IFGR components are set to the settings
recorded on the Start Up report or in Figures 5-11, 5-12
and 5-13 (as noted by the Cleaver-Brooks authorized
representative during original set up). Be sure that all
linkages are secure.
4. Start and warm the boiler as described in this Operation
and Maintenance manual.
5. Adjust the boiler components as described in this
Operation and Maintenance manual to achieve proper
boiler operation.
Refer to Chapter 8, Figure 8.8 for instructions on cassette
removal and installation.
I. START-UP, OPERATING AND
SHUTDOWN - ALL FUELS
Depending upon the fuel being burned, the applicable
previous sections in Chapter 5 should be reviewed for
preliminary instructions.
When firing with oil, be certain that the Burner Gun is in its
most forward position and latched in place (see Figure 5-6).
When firing with gas, the burner gun should be properly
withdrawn and latched in place. The fuel selector switch
should be, accordingly, set to either oil or gas.
Set the Manual-Automatic Switch (Figure 2-8) to “manual”
and turn the manual flame control to “close.”
Turn burner switch to “ON.” The load demand light should
glow. The low-water level light should remain out, indicating
a safe water level in the boiler. The programmer is now
sequencing. See Chapter 4 for sequence details.
Note: On an initial starting attempt, several
efforts might be required to accomplish
“bleeding” of fuel lines, main or pilot. If
ignition does not then occur, do not repeat
unsuccessful attempts without rechecking
the burner and pilot adjustment.
On ignition failure, the flame failure light will glow and the
blower will purge the boiler of unburned fuel vapors before
5-10
STARTING AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
stopping. After ignition failure, wait a few moments before
re-setting the lockout switch.
! WARNING
DANGER
Do not re-light the pilot or attempt to start
the main burner, either oil or gas, if the
combustion chamber is hot and/or if gas or
oil vapor combustion gases are present in
the furnace or flue passages. Failure to
follow these instructions could result in
serious personal injury or death
! WARNING
DANGER
The burner and control system is designed
to provide a “pre-purge” period of fan
operation prior to establishing ignition
spark and pilot flame. Do not attempt to alter
the system or take any action that might
circumvent the “pre-purge” feature. Failure
to follow these instructions could result in
serious personal injury or death
After main flame ignition, the burner should be set on manual
control at its low fire setting (that is, with manual flame
control at “close”) until the boiler is properly warmed. Close
the steam header.
In the case of a steam boiler, CLOSE THE TEST VALVE
when the steam begins to appear.
A hot water boiler must have a continuous flow of system
water through the vessel during the warm-up period. The
entire water content of the system and boiler must be warmed
prior to increasing fuel input.
If the flame at low fire provides insufficient heat to reach
normal operating pressure or temperature after 30 minutes,
gradually increase the firing rate by turning the Manual
Flame Control in one point increments to no higher than the
third cam screw. Operate at the increased fuel input rate for a
period of time until an increase is noted in pressure or
temperature.
After the boiler is thoroughly warmed, turn the manual flame
control to high fire. At this point a combustion analysis should
be made, with instruments, and fuel flow regulated as
required. Refer to the adjustment procedures in Chapter 6.
After making the high-fire adjustment, manually decrease the
firing rate, stopping at each cam screw to analyze combustion
gases, and adjust as required.
To properly perform the testing and adjusting, it is necessary
that the burner be allowed to fire at a maximum rate long
enough to achieve desired results.
Operating - Normal operation of the burner should be with
the switch in the automatic position and under the direction of
750-91
STARTING AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
the modulating control. The manual position is provided for
initial adjustment of the burner over the entire firing range.
When a shutdown occurs while operating in the manual
position at other than low fire, the damper will not be in a
closed position, thus allowing more air than desired to flow
through the boiler. The hot flame to cool air cycling subjects
the pressure vessel metal and refractory to undesirables
conditions.
With the switch set at “auto,” the burner will operate on a
modulating basis according to the load demand.
The burner will continue to operate with modulated firing
until the operating limit pressure or temperature is reached,
unless:
1.
The burner is manually turned “off.”
2.
A low-water condition is detected by low-water level
control.
3.
The electrical or fuel supply is interrupted.
4.
The combustion air pressure or atomizing air
pressure drops below minimum level.
Note: There can be other reasons for
shutdown such as motor overload, flame
outages, tripped circuit breakers, blown
fuses, or through other interlock devices in
the circuitry.
When the burner is shut down normally, by either the
Operating Limit Control or by manually switching the
burner off, the load demand light no longer glows.
Shutdown through conditions causing safety or interlock
controls to open will actuate the Flame Failure Light (and
alarm if so equipped) and the Load Demand Light will
remain lit. The cause of this type of shutdown will have to be
located, investigated, and corrected before operation can be
resumed. Refer to the “trouble-shooting” section in Chapter
7.
Shutdown - When the Operating Limit Control setting is
reached to open the circuit or if the burner switch is turned
“off,” the following sequence occurs.
The fuel valve is deenergized and the flame is extinguished.
The timer begins operation and the blower motor continues
running to force air through the furnace in the post-purge
period.
At the end of the programmed post-purge period, the blower
motor is turned off. The air pump motor of an oil-fired burner
is also turned off. The timer has returned to its original
starting position and stops. The unit is ready to re-start.
Chapter 5
! WARNING
DANGER
It is advisable to check for tight shut-off of
fuel valves. Despite precautions and
strainers, foreign material in either new or
renovated fuel lines may lodge under a
valve seat and prevent tight closure. The
situation is especially true in new
installations. Promptly correct any
conditions causing leakage. Failure to
follow these instructions could result in
serious personal injury or death
J. CONTROL OPERATIONAL TEST
AND CHECKS
Proper operation of the various controls should be verified
and tested when the boiler is initially placed into service, or
whenever a control is replaced. Periodic checks should be
made thereafter in accordance with a planned maintenance
program.
The operating limit control may be checked by allowing
steam pressure or water temperature to increase until the
burner shuts down. Depending upon the load, it may be
necessary to manually increase the firing rate to raise steam
pressure to the burner shut off point. If the load is heavy, the
header valve can be closed or throttled until the pressure
increases. Observe the steam gauge to check the cut off
pressure as the operating limit control shuts the burner down.
Slowly open the header valve to release steam pressure and
check the cut-in setting as the burner restarts. Check the
modulating control for the desired operating pressure range.
See Chapter 6 for instructions on the adjustment of controls.
The water temperature on a hot water boiler that may be
operating at less than full load may be raised by manually
increasing the firing rate until the burner shuts down through
the action of the operating limit control. Observe the
thermometer to verify the desired settings at the point of cutout and again when the burner restarts. Return the manual
automatic switch to “automatic” and check the modulating
control for the desired temperature range. See Chapter 6 for
instructions on the adjustment of the controls.
Check the proper operation and setting of the low-water
cutoff (and pump operating control, if used).
Proper operation of the flame failure device should be
checked at startup and at least once a week thereafter. Refer
to Chapter 8 for information on flame safety checks. Check
the program relay’s annunciation for any system failure.
Observe the promptness of ignition of the pilot flame and the
main flame.
Check for tight shut-off of all fuel valves. Despite precautions
and strainers, foreign material may lodge under a valve seat
and prevent tight closure. Promptly correct any conditions
that cause leakage.

procedures described in this section.
A. GENERAL
Each Cleaver-Brooks boiler is tested for correct operation
before shipment from the factory. However, variable
conditions such as burning characteristics of the fuel and
operating load conditions will require further adjustment.
Contact your local qualified Cleaver-Brooks Service
representative after installation to assure correct start-up and
maximum operating efficiency and economy.
A combustion efficiency analysis made during the initial
start-up will help to determine what additional adjustments
are required in a particular installation.
Prior to placing the boiler into service, a complete inspection
should be made of all controls, connecting piping, wiring, and
all fastenings such as nuts, bolts and setscrews to be sure that
no damage has occurred, or that adjustments have not
changed during shipment and installation.

The adjustment procedures in Chapter 6 apply to standard
components furnished on steam or hot water boilers fired with
gas and/or the various grades of oil.
HIGH TURNDOWN BURNER
In order to reduce stress on boiler components and to improve
boiler operating efficiency, burners have been designed for
enhanced fuel turndown capabilities. A High Turndown
Burner (HTB) is installed on boilers equipped to fire light oil
(Series 100), or gas (Series 700), or both (Series 200). Air and
fuel inlets, the diffuser, and the air damper control linkage
have been modified for these burners.
Note: Observe that proper air damper
linkage and fuel metering adjustment
procedures are followed for standard
(Series 400 or 600) or HTB (Series 100, 200,
or 700) burners to avoid damage to the
equipment. The burner series is identified
on the boiler data plate affixed to the front
head of the boiler

Adjustment Procedures
B. LINKAGE - MODULATING MOTOR
AND AIR DAMPER
1.
The linkage consists of various arms, connecting rods, and
swivel ball joints that transmit motion from the modulating
motor to the metering cam(s), to the rotary air damper, and to
the gas butterfly valve, if used.
When properly adjusted, a coordinated movement of the
damper and metering cams within the limits of the
modulating motor travel is attained to provide proper fuel-air
ratios through the firing range
The modulating motor must be able to complete its full
travel range.
! CAUTION
DANGER
Do not restrict the full travel of the modulating motor. Failure to follow these instructions could result in equipment damage.
2.
Initial adjustment should be made with the motor in full
closed position, that is with the shaft on the power end of
the motor in its most counterclockwise position.
In linkage adjustments there are several important factors that
must serve as guides.

The closer the connector is to the drive shaft, the less the
arm will travel; the closer the connector is to the driven
shaft, the farther that arm will travel.
Over-travel linkage, where used, should not be required
in order to extend its spring to the fullest stretch.
With the modulating motor in the low fire position, the arm
on its shaft should be at an angle of 45° below the horizontal.
The driven arm on the jack shaft should also be 45° below
horizontal. Secure both arms and fit the connecting linkage
rod in place between them. Refer to Figure 6-1.
Position the oil and/or gas modulating cams on the jackshaft
so that the cam follower assembly is between the first and
second cam adjusting screws (under the first adjusting screw
for High Turndown Burners). In this position, fuel delivery is
at low fire rate. Tighten the set screws to secure the cams on
the jackshaft.
Refer to Figure 6-2. The stop screw in the rotary air damper
limits damper travel at both closed (low fire) and fully opened
(high fire) positions. The screw is provided so that it is
possible to tell, even with the burner in place, whether the
damper rotor is in fully opened or closed position. Rotating
the damper clockwise to the stop screw opens the damper.
Rotating the damper counterclockwise to the stop screw
closes the damper. Normally, the rate of flow of air through
the damper with the rotor in low fire position is about onethird of maximum for a standard burner or one-sixth for a
HTB.
The amount of angular movement controlling the rate of air
flow is determined by the location of the ends of the rotary air
damper rod in both the jack shaft arm and the air damper
arm.When the air damper is in low fire position, the jackshaft
arm should be at 45° (47-1/2° for HTB) and the rotary air
damper arm should be at an angle of approximately 60° below
the horizontal (Figure 6-1). This will ensure that the angular

C. MODULATING MOTOR
The modulating motor has a 90° shaft rotation. The motor
manufacturer also provides a 160° stroke model for other
applications. If a replacement is obtained from someone
o t h e r t h a n a C l e av e r- B ro o k s S e r v i c e o r P a r t s
representative, it may have an incorrect stroke. To prevent
damage, determine the 90° stroke prior to installing a
replacement.
The stroke may be determined by powering the motor and
connecting terminals R-B to actually determine the stroke as
motor drives to an open position.
D. MODULATING MOTOR SWITCHES
- LOW FIRE AND HIGH FIRE
The modulating motor contains either one or two internal
switches depending upon application. The microswitches are
actuated by adjustable cams attached to the motor shaft.
Note: If the boiler is equipped with the CBHawk, there are no end switched. Do not
attempt to adjust the Modulating Motor if the
unit is equipped with the CB-Hawk
Factory replacement motors have the cams preset. The low
fire start switch is set to make the red and yellow leads at
approximately 8° on motor closing. The high fire purge air
proving switch (located in the modulating motor) is set to
make red and blue tracer leads at approximately 60° the on
motor opening. Normally the settings are left as is, but job
conditions may require readjustment. If the cams require
adjustment or resetting, follow the instructions in the
manufacturer’s technical manual.

E. BURNER OPERATING CONTROLS
- GENERAL
Note: Adjustments to the boiler operating
controls should be made by an authorized
Cleaver-Brooks Representative. Refer to the
appropriate boiler Operation and
M a i n t e n a n c e m a n u a l f o r s p e c i fi c
information on boiler startup and operation.
The standard boiler operating control package consists of
three separate controls, the High Limit Control, Operating
Limit Control and the Modulating control.
The High Limit Control senses the hot water temperature or
steam pressure. It is used as a safety limit to turn the burner
off in the event the operating limit control fails. The high limit
control should be set sufficiently above the operating limit
control to avoid nuisance shutdowns.
The Operating Limit Control senses temperature or
pressure and automatically turns the burner on to initiate the
start up sequence when required and turns the burner off to
initiate the shutdown sequence when the demand is satisfied.
The control must be set to initiate startup only at the low fire
position.
Adjustment Procedures
Separate and independent controls affect modulated firing
and burner on-off cycling. Figure 6-6 depicts a typical setting
relationship of the Operating Limit Control, Modulating
Control and the High Limit Control.
The burner will be “on” whenever the pressure or temperature
is less than point B and “off” whenever pressure or
temperature is greater than point A. The distance between
points A and B represents the “on-off” differential of the
Operating Limit Control.
In normal operation, the burner will shut down whenever the
pressure or temperature rises above setting A. At that point
the switch in the Operating Limit Control will open. As the
pressure or temperature drops back to B, the Operating
Limit Control closes and the burner will restart. The
Modulating Control will signal the modulating motor to be
in a low fire position. If the load demands exceed the low fire
input potential, the Modulating Control will increase the
firing rate proportionately as pressure or temperature falls
toward point D . The modulating motor will stop at any
The Modulating Control senses changes in the hot water
temperature or steam pressure and signals the modulating
motor to control the flow of fuel and air to the burner. With
either steam or hot water boilers, the modulating control must
be set to ensure the burner is at its minimum low fire position
before the operating limit control either starts or stops the
burner.
When adjusting or setting controls, first be sure all control
devices are securely mounted and level. With the temperature
sensing control, make sure the sensing bulb is properly
bottomed in its well and is secured against movement. Be
sure the connecting tubing is not kinked.
Figure: 6-4 Steam Operating Controls
The dial settings are generally accurate; although it is not
unusual to have a slight variation between a scale setting and
an actual pressure gauge or thermometer reading. Always
adjust control setting to agree with pressure gauge or
thermometer readings. Accurate instrument readings are
required. When necessary use auxiliary test equipment to set
controls.
Burner controls correctly set to match load demands will
provide operational advantages and achieve the following
desirable objectives:
• The burner will be operating in low fire position prior to
shut down.
• The burner will operate at low fire for a brief period on
each start during normal operation.
• Eliminates frequent burner on-off cycling.

intermediate point between C and D whenever the fuel input
balances the load requirement.
Point D represents the maximum firing rate of the burner, or
highfire. In the event pressure or temperature drops while the
burner is firing at highfire, it indicates that the load exceeds
the capacity of the boiler.
When firing a cold boiler, it is recommended that the burner
be kept at low fire, under manual flame control, until normal
operating pressure or temperature is reached. If the burner is
not under manual control on a cold start, it will immediately
move toward high fire as soon as the program control releases
the circuit that holds the burner in low fire. The modulating
control will be calling for high fire and the burner will move
to that position as rapidly as the damper motor can complete
its travel.
The firing graph (Figure 6-6) shows that point B and point C
do not coincide. Extreme load conditions could require the
points be closely matched.
Note: Rapid heat input can subject the
pressure vessel metal and refractory to
undesirable conditions.
When set as shown, with a time lag between B and C, the
burner will be in a low fire position upon a restart and will fire
at that rate for a short period of time before falling pressure or
temperature requires an increase in the firing rate.
Do not operate the boiler at a temperature in excess of
90% of the safety valve relief setting. The closer the
operating pressure is to the safety valve relief pressure,
the greater the possibility of valve leakage. Continued
leakage, however slight, will cause erosion and necessitate
early safety valve replacement. The control settings on a
hot water boiler must be within the temperature limits of
the boiler.
As the load requirement changes, the firing rate will change
accordingly. Thus it is referred to as modulated firing.
Note: On-Off cycling in excess of 8 cycles

combustion air motor and cause excessive
wear on switch gear and pilot electrodes.
If points B and C overlap when restart occurs, the burner
would drive to a higher firing position immediately after the
main flame was proven.
Note: It is not recommended that the boiler
controls be set so as to overlap the
modulating control range and operating
control range.
750-91
Ideally, the boiler operating controls should be set under
actual load conditions. Especially under new construction
conditions, the boiler is initially started and set to operate
under less than full load requirements. As soon as possible
thereafter, the controls should be reset to provide maximum
utilization of the modulating firing system. To accomplish
maximum utilization, and assuming that air/fuel combustion
6-5
Chapter 6
Adjustment Procedures
ratios have been set, make the required adjustments to the
controls to bring the boiler pressure or temperature up to meet
the load requirements.
To properly set the Modulating Control, carefully adjust it
under load conditions, until the load is maintained with the
burner firing at a steady rate. The firing rate at that point may
be full high fire or slightly less, depending upon the
relationship of the boiler size to the load.
When the Modulating Control is set and the burner is in full
high fire, the scale setting of the Modulating Pressure
Control on a steam boiler will indicate the low point of the
modulating range. The scale setting of the Modulating
Temperature Control on a hot water boiler will have a
reading that indicates the midpoint of the modulating range.
The Operating Limit control should now be adjusted and the
differential established. In an installation that does not require
a very close control of steam pressure or water temperature
the adjustable differential (Figure 6-6 A to B) should be set as
wide as conditions permit, since a wide setting will provide
less frequent burner cycling.
The High Limit Control provides a safety factor to shut the
burner off in the event the Operating Limit Control should
fail. The setting of the control should be sufficiently above the
Operating Limit Control to avoid nuisance shutdowns. The
setting, must be within the limits of the safety valve settings
and should not exceed 90% of the valve setting. The control
requires manual resetting after it shuts off the burner.
Figure: 6-7 Steam Operating Controls
G. OPERATING LIMIT PRESSURE
CONTROL (Steam)
Set the “cut-out” (burner-off) pressure on the main scale
using the large adjusting screw. Set the differential on the
short scale by turning the small adjusting screw until the
indicator points to the desired difference between cut-out and
cut-in pressures. The “cut-in” (burner-on) pressure is the cutout pressure MINUS the differential. The cut-out pressure
should not exceed 90% of the safety valve setting.
H. HIGH LIMIT PRESSURE
CONTROL (Steam)
In the setting of the controls, consideration must be given to
the time required for a burner restart. Each start, requires a
prepurge period, plus the fixed time required for proving the
pilot and main flame. In addition, approximately one-half
minute is required for the damper motor to travel from low to
high fire. The time lag may allow pressure or temperature to
drop below desirable limits.
Set “cut-out” (burner off) pressure on the main scale using
the adjusting screw. The control will break a circuit when
pressure reaches this point. The setting should be sufficiently
above the operating limit pressure control to avoid
shutdowns, and preferably not exceed 90% of safety valve
setting. The control requires manual resetting after
tripping on a pressure increase. To reset, allow pressure to
return to normal and then press the reset button.
F. MODULATING PRESSURE
CONTROL (Steam)
I. MODULATING TEMPERATURE
CONTROL (Hot Water)
Turn the adjusting screw until the indicator is opposite the
low point of the desired modulating range. Modulated firing
will range between the low point and a higher point equal to
the modulating range of the particular control. In 0-15 psi
controls the range is 1/2 lb; in 5-150 psi controls the range is
5 lbs; in 10-300 psi controls the range is 12 lbs.
Turn the knob on the front of the case until the pointer
indicates the desired setpoint temperature. The desired set
point is the center point of a proportional range. The control
has a 3 to 30° differential and may be adjusted to vary the
temperature range within which modulating action is desired.
With the cover off, turn the adjustment wheel until pointer
indicates desired range.
! CAUTION
DANGER
To prevent burner shutdown at other than
low-fire setting, adjust the modulating pressure control to modulate to low fire BEFORE
the operating limit pressure control shuts
off the burner. Failure to follow these instructions could result in damage to the
equipment.

Air pressure against the diaphragm actuates the switch which,
when made, completes a circuit to prove the presence of
combustion air. The pressure of the combustion air is at its
minimum value when the damper is full open. The
Combustion Air Proving Switch should be adjusted with the
damper fully open. It should be set slightly below the
minimum pressure, but not too close to that point to cause
nuisance shutdowns.
The run/test switch on the program relay should be set to
TEST. Turn the burner switch on. The blower will start
(provided that all limit circuits are completed) and the
programmer will remain in the low-fire (damper closed)
portion of the prepurge.

Set “cut-out” (burner off) temperature on the scale by
inserting a screwdriver through the cover opening to engage
the slotted head adjusting screw. The “cut-in” (burner on)
temperature is the cut-out temperature MINUS the
differential. The differential is adjusted from 5 to 30° F.
K. HIGH LIMIT TEMPERATURE
CONTROL (Hot Water)
Set the “cut-out” (burner off) temperature on scale using the
adjusting screw. The control will break the circuit and lock
out on a rise in water temperature above the setting. The
setting should be sufficiently above the operating limit
temperature to avoid unnecessary shutdowns. On a 30 psig
hot water boiler, the setting is not to exceed 240° F. The
control requires manual resetting after tripping on a
temperature increase. To reset, allow the water temperature
to drop below the cut-out setting less differential, and then
press the manual reset button.

Note: On an oil fired boiler, the atomizing air
proving switch (AAPS) must also be closed.
Note: On a combination fuel fired burner,
the fuel selector switch could be set at “gas”
to eliminate the atomizing air proving switch
from the circuitry.
To have the modulating damper motor drive to high fire
(damper open), remove the cover from the motor and remove
the wire from terminal W.
Slowly turn down the Combustion Air Proving Switch,
adjusting, screw until it breaks the circuit. Here the
programmer will lock out and must be manually reset before
it can be restarted. Add a half turn or so to the adjusting screw
to remake its circuit.
Recycle the program relay to be sure that normal operation is
obtained. Replace the wire on terminal W and reinstall the
cover. Return the test switch to the RUN position.
N. ATOMIZING AIR PROVING
SWITCH
The air pressure against the diaphragm actuates the switch
which, when closed, completes a circuit to prove the presence
of atomizing air. The pressure of the atomizing air is at its
minimum value when there is no fuel present at the nozzle.
Adjustment of the switch should be done while the unit is
running but not firing. The control should be set slightly
below the minimum pressure, but not too close to that point
to cause nuisance shutdowns.
The control adjustment may be made during the prepurge
period of operation by stopping the programmer during the
prepurge period through the use of the TEST switch. Refer to
the control instruction bulletin for details.

Chapter 6
Adjustment Procedures
Note: On an initial starting attempt, portions
of the fuel lines may be empty and require
“bleeding” time. It is better to accomplish
this with repeated shor t lighting trial
periods with intervening purge periods than
to risk prolonged fuel introduction. If the
pilot does not light after several attempts,
check all components of the pilot system.
The adjustment screw of the Atomizing Air Proving Switch
can then be adjusted until it breaks the circuit. Here, the
programmer will lock out and must be manually reset before
it can be restarted. Turn the adjusting screw up a half turn or
so to remake the circuit.
The adjustment of the air switch may be made either during
the damper closed or damper open position of prepurge. It is
also possible to make the adjustment with the relay stopped
in the damper open position in a similar manner to the
adjustment of the Combustion Air Proving Switch
described in Section M.
5.
After making the adjustment, recycle the control to be sure
that normal operation is obtained. The TEST switch must be
set to RUN position.
! WARNING
DANGER
O. GAS PILOT FLAME ADJUSTMENT
Wear a protective shield or suitable glasses
and keep eyes sufficiently away from the
s i g h t t u b e o p e n i n g t o avo i d s e r i o u s
personal injury or death. Never remove the
flame detector while the main burner is
firing. Failure to follow these instructions
could result in serious personal injury or
death.
The size of the gas pilot flame is regulated by adjusting the
gas flow through the Pilot Gas Regulator and the Pilot
Adjusting Cock on the front of the burner. The flame must be
sufficient to ignite the main flame and to be seen by the flame
detector. But an extremely large flame is not required. An
overly rich flame can cause sooting or carbon buildup on
the flame detector. Too small a flame can cause ignition
problems.
! WARNING
DANGER
Although it is possible to visibly adjust the size of the pilot
flame, it is preferable to obtain a microamp or voltage reading
of the flame signal.
When checking the pilot flame, be aware the
electrode is energized. Failure to follow
these instructions could result in serious
personal injury.
The correct voltage or microamp readings can be found in the
information supplied with the flame safeguard system.
The program relay used may be of the type that provides
message information that includes a constant flame signal of
dc voltage. In this case a separate dc voltmeter is not required.
6.
To Measure and Adjust Pilot:
1.
When making a pilot adjustment, turn the ManualAutomatic Switch to “manual” and the Manual Flame
Control to “close.” Open both the Pilot Cutoff Cock
and the Pilot Adjusting Cock. The Main Gas Cock
should remain closed.
The regulator in the pilot line, if provided, is to reduce the gas
pressure to suit the pilot's requirement of between 5 to 10"
WC. Regulator adjustment is not critical; however, with a
lower pressure the final adjustment of the pilot flame with
adjusting cock is less sensitive.
2.
Connect the micro-ammeter as outlined earlier.
3.
Turn the burner switch on. Let the burner go through the
normal prepurge cycle. When the ignition trial period is
signaled, set the test switch to the TEST position to stop
the sequence.
4.
If the pilot flame is not established within 10 seconds,
turn off the burner switch. Repeat the lighting attempt.
To make the final adjustment, slowly close the Gas Pilot
Adjusting Cock until the flame can no longer be seen
through the sight tube. Then slowly open the cock until a
flame providing full sight tube coverage is observed.
The adjustment must be accomplished within the time limit of
the safety switch or approximately 30 seconds after the
detector is removed. If the control shuts down, manually reset
it. Replace the detector and repeat the process from step 5.

When a suitable flame as indicated in paragraph 6 is
obtained, replace the detector. Observe the reading on the
micro-ammeter. The reading should be between 2-1/4
and 5 microamps when using a lead sulfide detector and
a standard amplifier. See the flame signal table in the
manufacturer's bulletin for values of other combinations.
The flame signal indicated on the annunciator type relay
should not be less than 10 Vdc, and may be as high as 20 Vdc
or greater.
The reading must be steady. If the reading fluctuates, recheck
the adjustment. Be sure that the flame detector is properly
seated and that the lens is clean.

If main flame has not been previously established,
proceed to do so in accordance with instructions
elsewhere in the manual.
10. The reading of the main flame signal should also be
checked. Observe the flame signal for pilot alone, pilot
and main burner flame together and the main burner
flame at high, low, and intermediate firing rate positions.
Readings should be steady and in the range indicated in
paragraph 7. If there are any deviations, refer to the
trouble shooting section in the technical bulletin.
P. GAS PRESSURE AND FLOW
INFORMATION
Because of variables in both the properties of gas and the
supply system, it will be necessary to regulate the pressure of
the gas to a level that produces a steady, dependable flame
that yields highest combustion efficiency at rated
performance yet prevents overfiring. Once the optimum
pressure has been established, it should be recorded and
periodic checks made to verify that the regulator is holding
the pressure at this level. Occasional modification in fuel
composition or pressure by the supplier may, at times, require
readjustment to return the burner to peak efficiency. Since the
gas pressure regulator itself is usually furnished by others,
detailed adjustment instructions and adjusting procedures
recommended by the manufacturer should be followed.
Pressure
The gas supplied must provide not only the quantity of gas
demanded by the unit, but must also be at a pressure high
enough to overcome the pressure-loss due to the frictional
resistance imposed by the burner system and the control
valves.
The pressure required at the entrance to the burner gas train
(Figure 2-13) for rated boiler output is termed “net regulated
pressure.” The gas pressure regulator must be adjusted to
achieve the pressure to assure full input.
The pressure requirement varies with boiler size, altitude, and
type of gas train. Refer to Table 6-2 for pressure requirements.
The pressures listed are based on 1000 Btu/cu-ft natural gas
at elevations up to 700 feet above sea level. For installation at
higher altitudes, multiply the selected pressure by the proper
factor from Table 6-2.

Gas Flow
The volume of gas flow is measured in terms of cubic feet and
is determined by a meter reading. The gas flow rate required
for maximum boiler output depends on the heating value
(Btu/cu-ft) of the gas supplied and boiler efficiency. The
supplying utility can provide the information.

Correction for the 2,000 feet altitude must be made since
altitude has a bearing on the net regulated gas pressure. The
standard gas train requires 37.5" WC gas pressure at sea level
(Table 6-1). Table 6-2 indicates a correction factor of 1.07 for
2,000 feet. Multiplying the results in a calculated net
regulated gas requirement of approximately 40.1" WC. This
is the initial pressure to which the regulator should be
adjusted. Slight additional adjustment can be made later, if
necessary, to obtain the gas input needed for burner rating.

Pressure Correction
The flow rate outlined in Section P is based on a “base”
pressure, which is usually atmospheric or 14.7 psia.
Meters generally measure gas in cubic feet at “line” or supply
pressure. The pressure at which each cubic foot is measured
6-10
and the correction factor for the pressure must be known in
order to convert the quantity indicated by the meter into the
quantity which would be measured at “base” pressure.
As an example:
Assume that a 600 horsepower boiler is installed at
2,000 feet above sea level; is equipped with a standard
gas train and a high turndown burner; and that 1,000
Btu natural gas is available with an incoming gas pressure of 3 psig. The pressure and flow requirements can
be determined as follows:
Flow
Since the gas flow rate is based on standard conditions of
flow, correction must be made for the supply pressure through
the meter of 3 psig. Determine the flow rate by dividing the
Btu content of the gas into the burner input (Table 6-3) and
“correct” this answer by applying the correction factor for 3
psig (Table 6-5).

Checking Gas Flow
Your gas supplier can generally furnish a gas meter flow chart
from which gas flow can be determined. After a short
observation period, the information aids in adjusting the
regulator to increase or decrease flow as required to obtain the
rating.
Final adjustment of the gas fuel is carried out by means of the
adjusting screws in the gas modulating cam, while
performing a combustion efficiency analysis. See Section Q
for details.
Note: The information given in this section
is for all practical purposes sufficient to set
and adjust controls for gas input. Your gas
supplier can, if necessary, furnish exact
correction factors that take into
consideration Btu content, exact base
pressure, specific gravity, temperature, etc.,
of the gas used.

Q. GAS FUEL COMBUSTION
ADJUSTMENT
After operating for a sufficient period of time to assure a
warm boiler, adjustments should be made to obtain efficient
combustion.
Note: All adjustment should be done by a
qualified boiler operator or your local
Cleaver-Brooks Service representative.
Burner efficiency is measured by the amount or percentage of
O2 present in the flue gas. O2 readings determine the total
amount or excess air in the combustion process, above the
point of stoichiometric combustion or perfect combustion.
Stoichiometric combustion is a term used to describe a
condition when there is the exact amount, molecule for
molecule, of air for the fuel attempting to be burned. This can
be accomplished under laboratory conditions, however it’s
not practical to attempt to meet this condition in a boiler.
Stoichiometric combustion however, is the reference point
used when setting fuel/air ratios in a boiler.
There must always be excess air in the combustion process
to account for changes in boiler room temperature and
6-11
Chapter 6
Adjustment Procedures
It’s important to understand what the readings shown on an
instrument refer to when setting combustion in a boiler. To
assist with this understanding Figure 6-9 shows the
relationship between O2 levels (excess air) and the products
of combustion for a typical flue gas analysis (natural gas).

Another product of combustion is CO (carbon monoxide) and
is shown in both percentage and parts per million (ppm). The
maximum CO level standardly allowed is less than 400 ppm.
However, this may change subject to local regulations.
The percent O2 recorded on an instrument equates to percent
excess air, i.e. 3% O2 is approximately 15% excess air and 4%
O2 is approximately 20% excess air. The exact percentage of
excess air is a mathematical calculation based on an ultimate
fuel analysis of the fuel being fired.
It is generally recommended that O2 readings of between 3%
to 4% be attained with less than 400 ppm CO, at high fire.
Using information from Section P of Chapter 6, determine the
standard conditions of gas pressure and flow for the size
boiler and the gas train on it. Calculate the actual pressure and
flow through the use of correction factors that compensate for
incoming gas pressure and altitude.

Proper setting of the air/fuel ratios at all rates of firing must
be established by the use of a combustion or flue gas analyzer.

Most flue gas analyzers in use today measure the content, by

by percent or parts per million (ppm). Carbon dioxide (CO2)
is not normally measured with todays flue gas analyzers, but
may be displayed via a calculation.
The O2 levels through the entire firing range of the burner,
low fire to high fire should be tested. The burner manufactures
recommendations on turndown should also be followed and
the turndown range of the burner should not be exceeded.

Adjustment Procedures
Basically, gas adjustments are made with a gas pressure
regulator, which controls the pressure and with the butterfly
gas valve (Figure 6-10) which directly controls the rate of
flow.
In initially setting the linkage, back off the low fire stop screw
on the butterfly valve so that the valve is closed. Then run the
screw out to touch the arm, and give it two complete turns.
Adjust the connecting rod so that the override tension is
released and so that the arm is now just touching the stop
screw. Tighten the locknuts on all ball joints. See Figure 6-10.
The low fire setting should be regarded as tentative until the
proper gas pressure for high fire operation is established.
To reach the high fire rate, turn the manual flame control
switch toward “OPEN” in minor increments while
monitoring combustion for overly rich or lean conditions.
Set and lock the high fire stop screw so that it is just touching
the valve arm.
Determine the actual gas flow from a meter reading. (See
section P of Chapter 6.) With the butterfly valve open and
with regulated gas pressure set at the calculated pressure, the
actual flow rate should be close to the required input. If
corrections are necessary, increase or decrease the gas
pressure by adjusting the gas pressure regulator, following the
manufacturer's directions for regulator adjustment.
When proper gas flow is obtained, take a flue gas reading. The
O2 should be between 3% and 4% at high fire.
If the fuel input is correct, but the O2 values do not fall within
this range, the air damper travel may need to be adjusted.
Adjustment of the air damper linkage is described in Section
B of Chapter 6.
With the high-fire air/fuel ratio established, the gas pressure
regulator needs no further adjusting.
After being certain that the air control damper and its linkage
are correctly adjusted to provide the proper amount of
combustion air, and after adjusting the gas pressure regulator,
final adjustment can be made, if necessary, to the gas
modulating cam to obtain a constant air/fuel ratio throughout
the entire firing range.
Note: Be sure the to loosen the cam foot
locking screws before adjusting any cam
screws or the cam feet may be damaged.
Since the input of combustion air is ordinarily fixed at any
given point in the modulating cycle, the flue gas reading is
determined by varying the input of gas fuel at that setting. The
adjustment is made to the metering cam by means of
a d j u s t i n g s c r ew s , w h i c h a r e t u r n e d o u t w a r d
(counterclockwise from the hex-socket end) to increase the
flow of fuel, and inward (clockwise from the hex-socket end)
to decrease it. Flow rate is highest when the cam follower
assembly is closest to jackshaft. See Figure 6-11.
Through the manual flame control switch, position the cam so
that the adjusting screw adjacent to the end or high fire screw
750-91
Chapter 6
contacts the cam follower. Perform a combustion analysis at
this point. If an adjustment is necessary, turn the adjustment
screw accordingly to increase or decrease fuel flow. Take a
combustion reading to verify input. Repeat as necessary until
the desired flow is obtained. Repeat the process, stopping at
each adjusting screw, until the low fire adjusting screw is
reached.
Note: Do not use any lubricant on the
adjusting setscrews. The set screws have a
nylon locking insert intended to provide
locking torque and resistance to loosening
and a lubricant could damage equipment.
Standard Burner Low Fire Adjustment
The fuel input should be adjusted using the low fire cam
screw, to approximately 25% of that at high fire (Table 6-3).
At low fire the O2 flue gas reading should be between 6-7%.
It may be necessary to readjust the setting of the low fire stop
screw to obtain the proper air/fuel ratio at the low fire rate. To
ensure that the low fire position of the gas butterfly valve is
always the same, allow one turn of the stop screw for
overtravel.
If the air damper needs to be adjusted in order to provide the
correct low fire air/fuel ratio, combustion must be rechecked
at higher firing rates and adjusted as required.
If all cam screws are properly adjusted, none will deviate
from the general overall contour of the cam face.
High Turndown Burner Low Fire
Adjustment
The fuel input should be adjusted using the low fire cam
screw, to approximately 10% of that at high fire (Table 6-4).
At low fire the O2 flue gas reading should be between 9.511%. When adjusting a high turndown burner equipped with
IFGR, the O2 readings should be 6 to 7%.
It may be necessary to readjust the setting of the low fire stop
screw in order to obtain the proper air/fuel ratio at low fire. To
ensure that the low fire position of the gas butterfly valve is
always the same, allow a half turn of the stop screw for
overtravel.
If the air damper must be reset to meet the low fire air/fuel
requirements. combustion at higher firing rates must be
rechecked.
The second cam adjusting screw may need to be adjusted in
order to maintain a smooth cam profile. If all screws are
properly adjusted, none will deviate from the general overall
contour of the cam face.
R. LOW-GAS-PRESSURE SWITCH
Adjust the scale setting to slightly below the normal burning
pressure. The control circuit will be broken when pressure
falls below this point. Since gas line distribution pressure may

adjusting of the controls in the following paragraphs, will
vary and thus may be regarded as tentative and to be changed
to provide best firing conditions. Figure 6-13 is an oil

Review of the applicable maintenance instructions given in

When the boiler is shut down, or switched over to gas firing,
the pump must operate for a sufficient period of time to cool
the oil heater. Similarly, if an electric, steam, or hot water oil
heater is removed for servicing, the temperature of the heater
should be reduced by circulating oil until it has cooled.
Note: To prevent oil heater coking, the fuel
oil pump must be in operation during all
times that an oil heater is in service. During
any time that the oil pump is not operating,
the oil heating system must be electrically
shut down by manually turning the oil
heater switch to the “off” position.

U. FUEL OIL COMBUSTION
ADJUSTMENT
After operating for a sufficient period of time to assure a
warm boiler, adjustments should be made to obtain efficient
combustion.
Note: All adjustment should be done by a
qualified boiler operator or your local
Cleaver-Brooks Service representative.
Burner efficiency is measured by the amount or percentage of
O2 present in the flue gas. O2 readings determine the total
amount or excess air in the combustion process, above the
point of stoichiometric combustion or perfect combustion.
Stoichiometric combustion however, is the reference point
used when setting fuel/air ratios in a boiler.
There must always be excess air in the combustion process
to account for changes in boiler room conditions and to
ensure the combustion is on the proper side of the
combustion curve (See Figure 6-9).
Proper setting of the air/fuel ratios at all rates of firing must
be established by the use of a combustion gas analyzer.
Efficient combustion cannot be solely judged by flame
condition or color, although they may be used in making
approximate settings. Combustion settings should be done so
that there is a bright sharp flame with no visible haze.
Most flue gas analyzers in use today measure the content, by
percentage, of oxygen (O 2 ) and in some cases, smoke.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is not normally measured with modern
gas analyzers, but may be displayed as a calculation.
The O2 levels through the entire firing range of the burner,
low fire to high fire should be tested. The burner manufactures
recommendations on turndown should also be followed and
the turndown range of the burner should not be exceeded.
It is required to set the burner to operate with a reasonable
amount of excess air to compensate for minor variations in
the pressure, temperature, or burning properties of oil. Fifteen
to 20% excess air is considered reasonable. This would result
in an O2 reading of 3% to 4%, at high fire.
Final adjustment to fuel input must be made to produce a
minimum of smoke. A maximum smoke spot density of a No.
2 for light oil, or a No. 4 for heavy oil is acceptable, as
measured in conformance to ASTMD 2156-63T.
Through the use of the manual flame control, slowly bring the
unit to high fire by stages while monitoring combustion for
overly rich or lean conditions. At the high fire position, the air
damper should be fully opened and the air and oil pressure
readings should be on the order of the readings given in
Chapter 5.
Take a flue gas analysis reading. If necessary, adjust the fuel
oil controller to increase or decrease oil pressure.
Adjustments to the pressure should be done before attempting
to adjust the screws in the metering cam. Ideally, the cam
750-91
Chapter 6
profile spring should be as close to the cam casting as
practical. It is more desirable to lower the oil pressure to
reduce flow, if necessary, than to extend the adjusting screws
to an extreme position in an effort to cut back flow.
After being certain that the air control damper and its linkage
are operating properly, final adjustment can be made, if
necessary, to the oil modulating cam to obtain a constant fuel/
air ratio through the entire firing range.
Note: Be sure the to loosen the cam foot
locking screws before adjusting any cam
screws or the cam feet may be damaged.
Since the input of combustion air is ordinarily fixed at any
given point in the modulating cycle, the flue gas reading is
determined by varying the input of fuel at that setting. The
adjustment is made to the metering cam by means of
adjusting screws, which are turned out (counterclockwise
from hex-socket end) to increase the flow of fuel and in
(clockwise from hex-socket end) to decrease it. Flow rate is
highest when the cam follower assembly is closest to the
jackshaft. See Figure 6-11.
If oil pressure, primary air pressure, and linkages are properly
adjusted, the metering cam should require minimal
adjustment.
Using the flame control switch, position the cam so that the
adjusting screw adjacent to the end, high-fire screw, contacts
the cam follower. Make a combustion analysis at this point.
If an adjustment is necessary, turn the adjustment screw
accordingly to increase or decrease fuel flow. Take a
combustion reading to verify input. Repeat as necessary until
the desired flow is obtained. Continue this pressure, stopping
at each adjusting screw, until the low fire position is reached.
Note: Do not use any lubricant on the
adjusting setscrews. These have a nylon
locking insert intended to provide locking
torque and resistance to loosening and a
lubricant could damage the equipment.
Standard Burner Low Fire Adjustment
(Heavy Oil)
The fuel input should be adjusted with the low fire cam screw,
to approximately 25% of that at high fire. At low fire the O2
flue gas reading should be between 7- 8%.
High Turndown Burner Low Fire
Adjustment (Light Oil)
Fuel input at low fire should be approximately 12.5% of that
at high fire. The low fire screw should be adjusted to obtain
the necessary input for the fuel turndown required. At low fire
the O2 flue gas reading should be between 7 - 9%. The second
cam adjusting screw may need to be adjusted in order to
maintain a smooth cam profile.

Adjustment Procedures
V. BURNER DRAWER ADJUSTMENT
There are relatively few adjustments that can be made to the
burner; however, a check should be made to assure that all
components are properly located, and that all holding screws
are properly tightened. Figures 6-17 and 6-18 show various
views or portions of the burner.
The diffuser location on gas fired boilers is quite important.
There should be 1/4” distance between the edges of the
diffuser fins and gas outlet tubes (spuds)(see Figure 6-16).
The setting of an oil fired burner is less exacting and the
diffuser should be located with the skirt approximately 1-1/8”
from the end of the burner tube.
When the proper diffuser location is ascertained, the setting
of the nozzle in relation to the diffuser should be checked.
This generally is set at time of manufacture and seldom needs
altering. It is most important that oil spray does not impinge
upon the diffuser. The distance that the nozzle is behind the
diffuser has some latitude, and individual installations may
require a slight deviation. The spacing indicated is 2".
Figure: 6-17 Oil Gun In Place, Oil Draw Switch Closed
Check the setting of the ignition electrode(s) for proper gap
and position. See Figure 6-15 for the gas pilot electrode and
Figure 6-14 for the light oil pilot. Be sure that the porcelain
insulator is not cracked and that ignition cable connections
are tight.
The oil nozzle tip should be seated tightly in the body with the
swirler and the seating spring in place. See Section G in
Chapter 8 for additional nozzle tip information.
Check to see that the flame detector sight tube and the gas
pilot tube extend through their respective openings in the
diffuser face.
W. OIL DRAWER SWITCH
The integral contacts of the control are closed by proper
positioning and latching of the oil drawer in its forward
position (Figure 6-17). Adjustment of the switch must be such
that its contacts open if the oil drawer is not properly
positioned for oil firing. The switch is electrically removed
from the circuit when a combination fuel burner is fired on
gas (Figure 6-18).
X. LOW-OIL-TEMPERATURE
SWITCH
The L.O.T.S. prevents the burner from starting, or stops its
operation, if the temperature of the oil is below normal
operating temperature.
To adjust the control, insert a screwdriver into the center slot
in the control cover and turn the dial until the fixed (center)
pointer is approximately 30°F lower than the oil heater
thermostat setting. Turn the differential adjusting screw
6-18
Figure: 6-18 Oil Gun Locked Out
(located above dial) until the movable indicator is
approximately 5° F above the setting on the main scale.
On a hot water boiler, the low-oil-temperature switch is an
integral part of the electric oil heater. The switch is nonadjustable and is factory set at approximately 40° F below the
maximum operating temperature of the heater.
Y. HIGH-OIL-TEMPERATURE
SWITCH
The H.O.T.S. prevents the burner from starting, or stops its
operation, if the temperature of the oil exceeds the normal
operating temperature.
To adjust, turn the dial until the pointer is approximately 25°
F above the normal operating temperature. The controls
generally have a set differential and will close 5° F below the
setpoint.
750-91
Adjustment Procedures
Z. LOW OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
The L.O.P.S. prevents burner ignition, or stops its operation,
when the oil pressure is below the set point. Adjust the control
by turning the screw on top of control case to an indicated
pressure 10 psi below the established primary oil pressure
setting indicated on the oil supply pressure gauge. The switch
will remain in a closed position as long as the oil pressure
exceeds this setting. The control normally used automatically
resets when pressure is restored after a drop.
AA. ELECTRIC OIL HEATER
THERMOSTAT (400 and 600 Series Steam)
The maximum temperature setting of the control is stamped
on the dial. The maximum Temperature setting is attained
with the adjusting knob turned to the “high” end of the scale.
Lower settings are obtained by turning the adjusting knob
clockwise using the thermometer in the fuel oil controller as
a guide.
The final setting of this thermostat should be at a temperature
approximately 15° F lower than the steam heater thermostat.
This eliminates the electric heater operation when the steam
heater is functioning. The electric heater is sized to provide
sufficient heated oil for low-fire operation on cold starts
before steam is available.
BB. STEAM OIL HEATER
THERMOSTAT (No. 6 Oil) (400 and
600 Series - Steam)
The maximum temperature setting of the control is stamped
on the dial. The maximum temperature setting is attained
with the adjusting knob turned to the “high” end of the scale.
Lower settings are obtained by turning the adjusting knob
clockwise using the thermometer in the fuel oil controller as
a guide.
Chapter 6
temperature exceeds the temperature of fuel oil entering the
heater.
The electric oil heater on a hot water boiler burning No. 6 oil
and equipped with a hot water oil heater has a built-in
adjustable thermostat. The maximum temperature setting is
stamped on its dial. The desired temperature can be obtained
by turning the adjusting screw. The thermostat should be set
at a temperature approximately 15 degrees lower than the hot
water heater thermostat. Such a temperature prevents the
electric heater from operation when the water heater is
functioning. The electric heater is sized to provide sufficient
heated oil for low-fire operation on cold starts before hot
water is available.
DD. STEAM HEATER PRESSURE
REGULATOR (400 and 600 Series Steam)
The regulator is provided on a boiler designed to operate at
pressures above 15 psi and reduces boiler steam pressure to
the level necessary for proper operation of the steam oil
heater. The pressure should be reduced to a point that permits
sufficient temperature to heat the oil, while allowing as
continuous a steam flow as possible. Pressure that is too high
will result in frequent cycling of the steam solenoid valve.
It is best to adjust the regulator under typical flow conditions.
To do so, it is suggested that the globe valve in the steam
supply line be closed so that there is no pressure on the
regulator. Turn out the adjusting screw fully to relieve
compression on the regulator spring, thus closing the
regulator. With steam at normal pressure, open the globe
valve and then set the secondary pressure by turning the
adjusting screw or handle until the downstream gauge shows
the desired pressure.
The final setting of the thermostat should provide oil at a
sufficient temperature for efficient combustion based on flue
gas analysis. There is no need to heat the oil in excess of the
temperature.
CC. HOT WATER OIL HEATER
THERMOSTAT (400 and 600 Series)
To adjust the thermostat, insert a screwdriver into the center
slot in the control cover and turn the dial until the pointer is at
the desired temperature level. The control generally has a set
differential, and will close 5°F below the setpoint.
The thermostat contacts close to energize the booster water
pump, which pumps water from the boiler through the heater.
On cold starts, it is normal practice to manually close the
valve in the pump discharge line until the boiler water

TROUBLE SHOOTING
! WARNING
DANGER
Trouble shooting should be performed only
by personnel who are familiar with the
equipment and who have read and
understand the contents of this manual.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in serious personal injury or death
! WARNING
DANGER
Disconnect and lock out the main power
supply in order to avoid the hazard of
electrical shock.Failure to follow these
instructions could result in serious
personal injury or death
Familiarity with the programmer and other controls in the
system may be obtained by studying the contents of this
manual. Knowledge of the system and its controls will make
trouble shooting much easier. Costly down-time or delays can
be prevented by systematic checks of actual operation against
the normal sequence to determine the stage at which
performance deviates from normal. Following a routine may
possibly eliminate overlooking an obvious condition, often
one that is relatively simple to correct.
If an obvious condition is not apparent, check the continuity
of the circuits with a voltmeter or test lamp. Each circuit can
be checked and the fault isolated and corrected. Most
circuitry checking can be done between appropriate terminals
on the terminal boards in the control cabinet or the entrance
box. Refer to the schematic wiring diagram for terminal
identification.
Note: If your boiler is equipped with a CBH AW K  b o i l e r m a n a g e m e n t c o n t ro l
system, refer to CB-HAWK Installation,
Operating and Servicing Manual No. 750133 for specific information regarding
procedures described in this section
Chapter 7 assumes that the unit has been properly installed
and adjusted, and that it has been running for some time. It is
further assumed that the operator has become thoroughly
familiar with both burner and manual by this time. The points
under each heading are set down briefly as possible causes,
suggestions or clues to simplify locating the source of
trouble. Methods of correcting the trouble, once it has been
identified, may be found elsewhere in this manual.
If the burner will not start or operate properly, the trouble
shooting Chapter should be referred to for assistance in
pinpointing problems that may not be readily apparent.
The program relay has the capability to self-diagnose and to
display a code or message that indicates the failure condition.
Refer to the control bulletin for specifics and suggested
remedies.

! CAUTION
DANGER
Inspection and maintenance should be performed only by trained personnel who are
familiar with this equipment. Failure to follow these instructions could result in equipment damage
A. GENERAL
A well-planned maintenance program will help avoid
unnecessary down-time or costly repairs, promote safety, and
aid boiler inspectors. An inspection schedule with a listing of
procedures should be established. It is recommended that a
boiler room log or record be maintained. Recording of daily,
weekly, monthly, and yearly maintenance activities provides
a valuable guide and aids in obtaining economical and
lengthy service from Cleaver-Brooks equipment. A boiler
inspection schedule is shown in Figure 8-30. It is important to
realize that the frequency of inspection will depend on
variable conditions: such as load, fuel, system requirements,
boiler environment (indoor/outdoor) etc.
Good housekeeping helps maintain a professional appearing
boiler room. Only trained and authorized personnel should be
permitted to operate, adjust, or repair the boiler and its related
equipment. The boiler room should be kept free of all
material and equipment not necessary to the operation of the
boiler or heating system.

Even though the boiler has electrical and mechanical devices
that make it automatic or semi-automatic in operation, the
devices require systematic and periodic maintenance. Any
automatic feature does not relieve the operator from
responsibility, but rather frees the operator from certain
repetitive chores providing time to devote to upkeep and
maintenance.
Alertness in recognizing an unusual noise, improper gauge
reading, leaks, etc., can make the operator aware of a
developing malfunction and permit prompt corrective action
that may prevent extensive repairs or unexpected downtime.
Any leaks - fuel, water, steam, exhaust gas - should be
repaired promptly and under conditions that observe
necessary safety precautions. Preventive maintenance
measures, such as regularly checking the tightness of
connections, locknuts, setscrews, packing glands, etc., should
be included in regular maintenance activities.
Periodic Inspection
Insurance regulations and local laws require periodic
inspection of the pressure vessel by an authorized inspector.
Section H of Chapter 3 contains information relative to the
inspection.
Inspections are usually, though not necessarily, scheduled for
periods of normal boiler down time, such as an off season.
This major inspection can often be used to accomplish
maintenance, replacement or repairs that cannot easily be
done at other times. Inspection also serves as a good basis for
establishing a schedule for annual, monthly, or other periodic
maintenance programs.
While the inspection pertains primarily to the waterside and
fireside surfaces of the pressure vessel, it provides the
operator an excellent opportunity for detailed inspection and
8-1
Chapter 8
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
check of all components of the boiler including piping,
valves, pumps, gaskets, refractory, etc. Comprehensive
cleaning, spot painting or repainting, and the replacement of
expendable items should be planned for and taken care of
during this time. Any major repairs or replacements that may
be required should also, if possible, be coordinated with the
period of boiler shutdown.
Replacement spare parts, if not on hand, should be ordered
sufficiently prior to shutdown.
Note: Cleaver-Brooks genuine parts should
be used to ensure proper operation.Contact
your local Cleaver-Brooks representative
for parts information and ordering
Cleaver-Brooks boilers are designed, engineered, and built to
provide long life and excellent service. Good operating
practices and conscientious maintenance and care will assure
efficiency and economy from their operation, and will
contribute to many years of performance.
A total protection plan includes a Planned Maintenance
Program that covers many of the items included in this
chapter.
For information regarding a total protection plan, contact
your local Cleaver-Brooks authorized representative.
B. FIRESIDE CLEANING
Soot and non-combustibles are effective insulators, and, if
allowed to accumulate, will reduce heat transfer to the water
and increase fuel consumption. Soot and other deposits can
be very moisture-absorbent, and may attract moisture to form
corrosive acids that will deteriorate fireside metal.
Clean-out should be performed at regular and frequent
intervals, depending upon load, type, and quality of fuel,
internal boiler temperature, and combustion efficiency. A
stack temperature thermometer can be used as a guide to
clean-out intervals since an accumulation of soot deposits
will raise the flue gas temperature.
Tube cleaning is accomplished by opening the front and rear
doors. Tubes may be brushed from either end. All loose soot
and accumulations should be removed. Any soot, or other
deposits, should be removed from the furnace and tube
sheets.
Refer to Section Q of Chapter 8 for instructions on properly
closing rear heads.
The flue gas outlet and stack should be inspected annually
and cleaned as necessary. Commercial firms are available to
perform the work. The stack should be inspected for damage
and repaired as required.
The fireside should be thoroughly cleaned prior to any
extended lay-up of the boiler. Depending upon
circumstances, a protective coating may be required. See
Section I in Chapter 3.
C. WATER LEVEL CONTROLS
The need to periodically check water level controls and the
waterside of the pressure vessel cannot be overemphasized.
Most instances of major boiler damage are the result of
operating with low water, or the use of untreated (or
incorrectly) treated water.
Always be sure of the boiler water level. On steam boilers, the
water column should be blown down daily. Check samples of
boiler water and condensate in accordance with procedures
recommended by your local Cleaver-Brooks authorized
representative. Refer to Sections G and H in Chapter 3 for
blowdown instructions and internal inspection procedures.
Since low-water cutoff devices are generally set by the
original manufacturer, no attempt should be made to adjust
these controls to alter the point of low-water cutoff or point of
pump cut-in or cut-out. If a low-water device should become
erratic in operation, or if its setting changes from previously

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Chapter 8
D. WATER GAUGE GLASS
A broken or discolored glass should be replaced at once.
Periodic replacement should be a part of the maintenance
program. Always use new gaskets when replacing a glass.
Use a proper size rubber packing. Do not use loose packing,
which could be forced below the glass and possibly plug the
valve opening.
Close the valves when replacing the glass. Slip a packing nut,
a packing washer, and packing ring onto each end of the glass.
Insert one end of the glass into the upper gauge valve body far
enough to allow the lower end to be dropped into the lower
body. Slide the packing nuts onto each valve and tighten.
Figure 8-2: Low Water Cutoff - Cutaway
established levels, contact your local Cleaver-Brooks
authorized representative.
Steam Boiler
Figure 8-1 shows the low-water cutoff plate which is attached
to a steam boiler. The instructions should be followed on a
definite schedule.The controls normally function for long
periods of time, which may lead to laxity in testing on the
assumption that normal operation will continue indefinitely.
On a steam boiler, the head mechanism of the low-water
cutoff device(s) should be removed from the bowl at least
semi-annually to check and clean the float ball, the internal
moving parts, and the bowl or water column. Figure 8-2
shows a cutaway of the low water cutoff.
Remove the pipe plugs from the tees or crosses and make
certain the cross-connecting piping is clean and free of
obstructions. Controls must be mounted in a plumb position
for proper performance. Determine that piping is vertically
aligned after shipment and installation and throughout life of
equipment.
A blowdown of the water controls on a steam boiler should be
performed daily
Hot Water Boiler.
It is impractical to blowdown the low-water cutoff devices on
a hot water boiler since the entire water content of the system
would become involved. Many hot water systems are fully
closed and any loss of water will require make-up and
additional feedwater treatment that might not otherwise be
necessary. Since the boiler and system arrangement usually
make it impractical to perform daily and monthly
maintenance of the low-water cutoff devices, it is essential to
verify proper operation. Remove the operating mechanism
from the bowl annually or more frequently, if possible, to
check and clean float ball, internal moving parts, and the bowl
housing. Also check the cross-connecting piping to be certain
that it is clean and free of obstruction.
750-91
It is recommended that the boiler is off and cool when the
glass is replaced. However if the glass is replaced while the
boiler is in service, open the blowdown and slowly bring the
glass to operating temperature by opening the gauge valves
slightly. After glass is warmed up, close the blowdown valve
and open the gauge valves completely.
! WARNING
DANGER
Do not attempt to change the gauge glass
while the boiler is in service. Failure to
follow these instructions could result in
serious personal injury or death
Check try-cocks and gauge cocks for freedom of operation
and clean as required. It is imperative that the gauge cocks are
mounted in exact alignment. If they are not, the glass will be
strained and may fail prematurely.
E. ELECTRICAL CONTROLS
The operating controls should be inspected monthly.
Examine tightness of electrical connections and keep the
controls clean. Remove any dust that accumulates in the
interior of the control using a low pressure air. Take care not
to damage the mechanism.
Examine any mercury tube switches for damage or cracks.
Dark scum over the normally bright surface of the mercury,
may lead to erratic switching action. Be certain that controls
are correctly leveled. The piping leading to the pressure
control actuators should be cleaned, if necessary. Covers
should be left on controls at all times.
Dust and dirt can cause excessive wear and overheating of
motor starter and relay contacts. Use a burnishing tool or a
hard surface paper to clean and polish contacts. Starter
contacts are plated with silver and are not harmed by
discoloration and slight pitting. Replacement of the contacts
is necessary only if the silver has worn thin.

! CAUTION
DANGER
Do not use files or abrasive materials such
as sandpaper on the contact points. Failure
to follow these instructions could result in
equipment damage.
Thermal relay units (overloads) are of the melting-alloy type
and, when tripped, the alloy must be given time to re-solidify
before relay can be reset. If the overloads trip out repeatedly
when the motor current is normal, replace them with new
overloads. If the condition continues after replacement, it will
be necessary to determine the cause of excessive current draw
at the overloads.
Power supply to the boiler must be protected with dual
element fuses (fusetrons) or circuit breakers. Similar fuses
should be used in branch circuits. Standard one-shot fuses are
not recommended. Information given in Figure 8-3 is
included for guidance to fuse requirements.
8-4
F. FLAME SAFETY CONTROL
The microprocessor based control requires minimal
maintenance because the safety and logic timings are
inaccessible. There also are not any accessible contacts.
Check to see that the retaining screw is securely holding the
chassis to the mounting base. Also check to see that the
amplifier and the program module are tightly inserted.
The relay's self-diagnostic ability includes advising when it
or its plug-in modules are at fault and require replacement.
Your spare control should be stored in a dry atmosphere and
wrapped in plastic. During an extended shutdown (e.g.,
seasonal), the active control should be removed and stored.
Moisture can cause problems with control operation.
It is recommended that service be rotated between the active
and a spare control to assure a working replacement is
available.
750-91
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
! WARNING
DANGER
When replacing a control, be sure to lock
out the main power supply switch since the
control is “hot” even though the burner
switch is off. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in serious
personal injury or death.
Be sure the connecting contacts on the control and its base are
not bent out of position.
The flame detector lens should be cleaned as often as
operating conditions demand. Use a soft cloth moistened with
detergent to clean the lens.
A safety check procedure should be established to test the
complete safeguard system at least once a month, or more
often. Tests should verify safety shutdown and a safety
lockout upon failure to ignite the pilot, upon failure to ignite
the main flame, and upon loss of flame. Each of the conditions
should be checked on a scheduled basis.
The following tests should be used to test the complete
safeguard system. If the sequence of events is not as
described, then a problem may exist. Contact your local
Cleaver-Brooks authorized representative for assistance.
Chapter 8
Turn the burner switch off. Reset the safety switch. Reestablish main fuel supply.
Checking Loss of Flame
With the burner in normal operation, shut off the main burner
fuel supply to extinguish main flame.
The fuel valve(s) will be deenergized and the relay will signal
the condition within 4 seconds. The control will then lock out
on a safety shutdown. The flame failure light (and optional
alarm) will be activated. The blower motor will run through
the post-purge and stop.
Turn the burner switch off. Reset the safety switch. Reestablish main fuel supply.
G. OIL BURNER MAINTENANCE
The burner should be inspected for evidence of damage due
to improperly adjusted combustion. Any soot buildup on the
diffuser or the oil nozzle should be removed. The setting of
the oil nozzle in relation to the diffuser and other components
is important for proper firing and should be checked. See
Section T in Chapter 6.
Oil Strainers
Oil strainers should be cleaned frequently to maintain a free
and full flow of fuel.
Checking Pilot Flame Failure
Close the gas pilot shutoff cock (Figure 2-10). Also shut off
the main fuel supply. Turn the burner switch “on.”
The pilot ignition circuit will be energized at the end of the
pre-purge period. There should be an ignition spark, but no
flame. Since there is no flame to be detected, the program
relay will signal the condition. The ignition circuit will
deenergize and the control will lock out on a safety shutdown.
The flame failure light (and optional alarm) will be activated.
The blower motor will run through the post-purge and stop.
Turn the burner switch off. Reset the safety switch. Reopen
the gas pilot shutoff cock and re-establish main fuel supply.
Checking Failure to Light Main Flame
Leave the gas pilot shutoff cock open. Shut off the main
burner fuel supply. Turn the burner switch on. The pilot will
light upon completion of the pre-purge period. The main fuel
valve(s) will be energized, but there should be no main flame.
The fuel valve(s) deenergize within 4 seconds after the main
burner ignition trial ends. The control will lock out on a safety
shutdown. The flame failure light (and optional alarm) will be
activated. The blower motor will run through the post-purge
and stop.
750-91
Light Oil Strainers
The fuel oil strainer screen must be removed and cleaned at
regular intervals. It is advisable to remove the screen each
month and clean thoroughly by immersing it in solvent and
blowing it dry with compressed air. To remove, loosen the
cover cap screw, being careful not to lose the copper gasket.
If necessary, tap the strainer cover gently to loosen. Check the
cover gasket for damage and replace if necessary. Slip pliers
into the cross on the top of the strainer and twist counterclockwise to remove the basket. Reassemble in reverse order.
Heavy Oil Strainers
Keep the cartridge of the oil strainer clear by regularly giving
the exterior handle one complete turn in either direction. Do
this often until experience indicates cleaning frequency
necessary to maintain optimum conditions of flow. If the
handle turns hard, rotate the handle back and forward until it
can be turned through a complete revolution. Do not force it
with a wrench or other tool.
Drain the sump as often as experience indicates the necessity.
Remove the sump, or the head and cartridge assembly, for
thorough cleaning and inspection at frequent intervals.
Exercise care not to damage the cartridge discs or the cleaner
8-5
Chapter 8
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
blades. Wash the cartridge in solvents. Do not attempt to
disassemble the cartridge.
Cleaning Oil Nozzle
The design of the burner, together with the oil purge system
on a heavy oil burner, make it unnecessary to clean the oil
nozzle during periods of operation. A routine check and any
necessary cleaning should be made during off periods or
when the burner is firing on gas.
If at any time the burner flame appears “stringy” or “lazy,” it
is possible that the nozzle tip or swirler has become partially
clogged or worn. Any blockage within the tip will cause the
air pressure gauge to increase above its normal value.
Disassemble with the power off by unlatching and
withdrawing the burner gun. Insert the nozzle body into the
hanger vice and use the spanner wrench to remove the tip.
Carefully remove the swirler and seating spring being careful
not to drop or damage any parts. See Figure 8-4, 8-5.
STANDARD NOZZLE TIP
SPRING
SPANNER
WRENCH
Figure 8-4: High Turndown Nozzle Components
See that the plugged hole is at the bottom of the nozzle body
when the gun is installed.
The air purge nozzle and its strainer should be inspected
periodically and cleaned. The nozzle consists of a tip and
internal core. Clean all internal surfaces of the tip and the
slotted parts of the core using a wood splinter to avoid
damage from scratching. Replace the core, setting it tightly
but not excessively so.
Clean the strainer screen carefully to remove any foreign
matter. Use suitable solvents in cleaning. Extremely hot water
at high velocity is also helpful in cleaning. Replace strainer
by screwing it into the nozzle body only finger tight. Do not
use an orifice of a size other than originally installed.
Ignition System
For best results, maintain the proper gap and dimensions of
the ignition electrode(s). Figures 6-14 & 6-15 show the
proper settings.
NOZZLE BODY
HIGH TURNDOWN NOZZLE TIP
SPRING
SWIRLER
The tip and swirler are a matched set, which are precision
lapped at the time of assembly. The close fit of the lapped
surfaces must be maintained in order to provide optimum
performance. Additional lapping may be required to provide
better atomization for more efficient combustion. Do not
interchange parts if a spare is kept. In reassembling, be certain
that the seating spring is in place and that it is holding the
swirler tightly against the tip. The swirler is stationary and
does not rotate, but rather imparts a swirling motion to the oil.
Cleaning Air Purge Nozzle (No. 6 Oil) and
Back Pressure Orifice Nozzle (No. 2 Oil)
NOZZLE BODY
SWIRLER
Perform any necessary cleaning with a suitable solvent. Use
a soft fiber brush or pointed piece of soft wood for cleaning.
Do not use wire or a sharp metallic object, which could
scratch or deform the orifices as well as the precision ground
surfaces of the swirler and tip. Inspect for scratches or signs
of wear or erosion, which may make the nozzle unfit for
further use. Take the necessary precautions in working with
solvents.
Inspect the electrode tip for signs of pitting or combustion
deposits and dress as required with a fine file. Inspect the
porcelain insulator (s) for any cracks that might be present. If
there are cracks, replace the electrode since they can cause
grounding of the ignition voltage. Since carbon is an
electrical conductor, it is necessary to keep the insulating
portion of electrode(s) wiped clean if any carbon is present.
Ammonia will aid in removing carbon or soot.
SPANNER
WRENCH
Figure 8-5: CB-LE Burner Nozzle Components

750-91
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Check ignition cables for cracks in the insulation. Also see
that all connections between the transformer and the
electrodes are tight.
Periodically remove the access plug from the gas pilot
aspirator (Figure 6-15) and clean out any accumulated lint or
other foreign material.
H. GAS BURNER MAINTENANCE
The gas burner components should be inspected for evidence
of damage due to improperly adjusted combustion.
Combustion adjustments should be checked monthly. See
Section T in Chapter 6.
Check periodically for a proper seal between the end of the
burner housing and boiler refractory (see Figure 8-24). Any
deterioration of the seal should be corrected, as an improper
or poor seal allows air leaks, which can cause overheating or
burning of the burner housing.
Whenever the burner is removed, the diffuser, gas housing
and gas spuds (HTB model only) should be checked for any
deterioration. Verify that the diffuser skirt conforms to the
bore of the burner housing so as to minimize the amount of
combustion air which bypasses the diffuser. If the burner is a
high turndown burner (HTB) model, check to see that the
diffuser is properly located in reference to the gas spuds.
There should be 1/4” between the edge of the diffuser fins and
the gas spuds when the burner is installed. Check to see that
the diffuser fins do not interfere with the gas ports or gas
spuds in the burner housing (see Chapter 6, Figure 6-16). See
Section V in Chapter 6 for more information.
Check the electrode setting for any cracks that might be
present on the porcelain insulator. Replace the electrode if
cracking is evident, since cracking can cause grounding of the
ignition voltage. Inspect the tip of the electrode for signs of
pitting, combustion deposits and wear, and dress as required
with a fine file. See Chapter 6, Figure 6-14 & 6-15 for
electrode settings.
Periodically remove the access plug from the gas pilot
aspirator (see Chapter 6, Figure 6-15) and clean out any
accumulated lint or other foreign material.
Check the ignition cables for cracks in the insulation. Verify
that all connections between the transformer and the
electrode are tight.
I. MOTORIZED GAS VALVE
The motorized gas valve (Hydramotor) operating mechanism
is completely immersed in oil and little maintenance is
required because of the sealed design. However, proper
operation should be checked on a routine periodic basis.
Keep outer parts of the valve clean, especially the stem
between the operator and the valve. A nicked, scored or
otherwise damaged valve stem can cause leakage. Do not
remove dust covers if installed.
750-91
Chapter 8
The packing gland is of the O-ring type. If oil is noticed
around the operator base or if leakage occurs, repair by
replacing any leaking O-rings and refilling the actuator with
oil.
If the actuator is sluggish or fails to operate, even after the oil
level is checked, replace the entire operator portion.
J. SOLENOID VALVES
Foreign matter between the valve seat and seat disc can cause
leakage. Valves are readily disassembled; however, care must
be used during disassembly to be sure that internal parts are
not damaged during the removal and that reassembly is in
proper order.
A low hum or buzzing will normally be audible when the coil
is energized. If the valve develops a loud buzzing or
chattering noise, check for proper voltage and clean the
plunger assembly and interior plunger tube thoroughly. Do
not use any oil. Be sure that the plunger tube and solenoid are
tight when reassembled. Take care not to nick, dent, or
damage the plunger tube.
Coils may be replaced without removing the valve from the
line.
! WARNING
DANGER
Be sure to turn off power to the valve in
order to avoid electrical shock. Failure to
follow these instructions could result in
serious personal injury or death.
Check coil position and make sure that any insulating
washers or retaining springs are reinstalled in proper order.
K. AIR CONTROL DAMPER,
LINKAGE AND CAM SPRING
The burner air control damper should be checked for free
movement as a part of the monthly inspection. With the
burner off and the jackshaft damper control rod disconnected,
the air control damper should rotate freely through its entire
range of movement. Any resistance to movement or excessive
play in the support bearing should be investigated and
corrected before the burner is put back in operation.
The overall tightness of the linkage assembly should be
checked monthly. If necessary, tighten the setscrews and the
connections at the uniballs. Check the uniballs for wear and
replace if necessary.
The linkage assembly should be tight but should not bind. If
the linkage assembly is binding, determine the cause of the
binding and correct as necessary.
8-7
Chapter 8
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Linkage rod end attachment points should be marked on the
variable displacement linkage arms as an aid in subsequent
reassembly.
AIR INLET
HOOD
AIR DUCT
Inspection of the air damper and linkage bearings should be
performed on a more frequent basis if the boiler is operating
in a dirty environment.
The fuel cam profile spring should be inspected monthly for
wear, scoring or distortion. If any of the questionable
conditions are found, the spring must be replaced
immediately to avoid the possibility of breakage in service.
Use care to avoid damaging the cam or spring during
installation.

7. Swing the fan/motor cassette to the side and secure it to the
boiler using high strength cord. Do not over extend the
motor wires.
N. INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
NOx levels should be checked periodically to ensure
compliance with all local and federal regulations, as well as
to ensure that the boiler is operating at maximum efficiency.
Linkages should be inspected and free movement (no
binding) of the IFGR damper confirmed.
Increasing or decreasing NOx levels could indicate incorrect
damper positioning, loose linkages, an improper air-to-fuel
ratio, or stack draft changes. If adjustment is required, or if
problems persist, contact your local Cleaver-Brooks
authorized representative for further assistance.
As ash and products of combustion pass through the IFGR
damper, there will be some accumulation on the damper,
windbox, and other parts of the IFGR system and burner.
To ensure proper operation of the IFGR system and burner,
inspection and cleaning should be performed at regular
intervals, depending on the load, type of fuel, and combustion
temperatures.
1. With the IFGR damper exposed, inspect the internal
linkages for secure connections, and check for free
movement of the linkage arms and the IFGR damper
assembly. To check for free movement of the linkage
separate the external linkage from the jackshaft drive
arm(s) and cycling the exterior linkage through its range of
movement.
2. The clearance between the impeller and backplate should
be checked, and adjusted, if required. Impeller clearances
must be as shown in Table 8-1.
3. The impeller clearance is checked by inserting a long
feeler gauge of the proper thickness between the impeller
and the impeller housing. Impeller clearances should be
checked at the highest fin on the impeller (that fin which is
closest to the impeller housing), and must be checked at
each point where the housing is attached to the motor
backplate.
4. If the impeller clearance is not correct at all points, make
adjustments as follows:
A. Loosen the retaining nuts on both sides of the impeller
housing.
B. Adjust the retainers for the correct impeller clearance
at two housing attachment points 180° apart.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Chapter 8
Note: If the boiler is installed in a dusty
location, check the vanes occasionally for
deposits of dust or dirt. These buildups can
cause a decrease in air capacity, or lead to
an unbalanced condition or cause damage
to the equipment.
! CAUTION
DANGER
Do not over tighten the metering valve packing nut. Excessive tightening of the packing
nut prevents free movement of the metering
stem. Failure to follow these instructions
can cause damage to the equipment.
Q. SAFETY VALVES
The safety valve is a very important safety device and
deserves attention accordingly.
Follow the recommendations of your boiler inspector
regarding valve inspection and testing. The frequency of
testing, either by the use of the lifting lever or by raising the
steam pressure, should be based on the recommendation of
your boiler inspector and/or the valve manufacturer, and in
accordance with sections VI and VII of the ASME Boiler and
Pressure Vessel Code.
Avoid excessive operation of the safety valve; even one
opening can provide a means of leakage. Safety valves should
be operated only often enough to assure that they are in good
working order. When a pop test is required, raise the
operating pressure to the set pressure of the safety valve,
allowing it to open and reseat as it would in normal service.
Do not hand operate the valve with less than 75% of the
stamped set pressure exerted on the underside of the disc.
When hand operating, be sure to hold the valve in an open
position long enough to purge accumulated foreign material
from the seat area and then allow the valve to snap shut.
If replacement of the metering valve packing is necessary,
procure kit P/N 880-370 and install in accordance with the
following procedure.
1.
Shut off the oil flow. Be sure no pressure shows on the
gauge.
2.
Match-mark the cam hub and drive shaft. Match marking
will enable replacement of the cam in its original
position and result in a minimum of cam adjustment
when the burner is refired.
3.
Clamp or hold the metering stem in the down position.
4.
Loosen the setscrews in the cam hub and rotate, or move
the cam to a position where it does not interfere with
stem removal.
5.
Withdraw the metering valve stem and spring. Do not
drop or mishandle. Check for nicks or scratches. Check
that the pin holding the metering portion is not
protruding. Back off the packing gland.
CAM FOLLOWER
Frequent usage of the safety valve will cause the seat and disc
to become wire drawn or steam cut. This will cause the valve
to leak and necessitate down time of the boiler for valve repair
or replacement. Repair of a valve must be done only by the
manufacturer or his authorized representative.

6.
Remove the capscrews holding the jack shaft support
bracket so that the bracket can be moved. It may also be
necessary to loosen the supporting bracket on the far end
of the shaft.
the oil metering valve with suitable solvent and blow-dry with
an air line. Follow the procedure outlined above when
removing or reinstalling the metering valve stem. Also check
all fuel line strainers.
7.
Remove the existing packing and guides. Do not reuse
the packing and guides.
8.
Lightly coat the stem with the lubricant provided with the
packing kit. Place the new packing, O-rings and guides
onto the stem in the sequence shown in Figure 8-17. The
beveled face of the guides and the teflon rings must face
upward, with the exception of the upper brass guide
which is faced down. Be sure that the O-rings are
properly located.
Should a pressure adjusting or relief valve become clogged,
disassemble by releasing the locknut and backing off the
screw to relieve tension on diaphragm. Remove the valve
cover and the diaphragm to expose any dirt or foreign
material which may have entered the valves. Clean out
carefully and reassemble. It is recommended that the
diaphragms be replaced annually.
9.
Using the stem as a guide, insert the assembled packing
into the cavity, then withdraw the stem.
10. In the event the packing is too high, remove one teflon
packing from each side of the middle brass guide as
needed.
Under no circumstances eliminate the two teflon packings on
only one side of the brass guide.

11. Replace the gasket, put the support in place, and secure
all fastenings.
S. THE AIR PUMP AND
LUBRICATING SYSTEM
12. Replace the metering stem and spring. Lightly lubricate
the stem to facilitate insertion and easy movement. Use
care when inserting so that the orifice and the stem are
not damaged.
13. Snug the packing gland, but only sufficiently to place
slight tension on the packing. The stem must move freely
from the force of the spring.
14. Work the stem up and down several times to ensure that
it is moves freely.
15. Depress the valve stem and replace the cam. Mate the
match-marks and secure the setscrews. Be sure the cam
spring is centered in the roller.
16. Restore oil flow. Test fire the burner at various firing rates
being certain that the metering stem freely follows the
cam.
17. Tighten the packing gland after a period of operation, if
necessary, to maintain proper tension on the packing. Do
not overtighten.
If there are indications that the oil metering valve has become
clogged at its orifice, it will be necessary to disassemble the
control to remove the obstruction. Clean the slotted stem of
Air Pump
The air pump itself requires little maintenance. However, the
life of the pump is dependent upon a sufficient supply of clean
cool lubricating oil. The oil level in the air-oil tank must be
observed closely. Lack of oil will damage the pump making
replacement necessary. Disassembly or field repairs to the
pump are not recommended.
Lubricating Oil
Lubricating oil must be visible in the gauge glass at all times.
There is no specific level required as long as oil is visible. Do
not operate if oil is not visible.
Oil with proper viscosity must be used. SAE 20 detergent is
recommended, although SAE 10 detergent is also
permissible.
When adding oil:
Remove the cover from the fill pipe and add oil through the
conical strainer in the pipe with the unit running.
! CAUTION
DANGER
Oil must NEVER be added unless the pump
is in operation and the strainer screen is in
place. Failure to follow these instructions
can cause damage to the equipment.

The oil and its container should be clean. Although there is a
strainer in the lube oil line, its purpose is to remove any
unwanted materials rather than to act as a filter for unclean
oil.
Lubricating Oil Strainer and Cooling Coil
Air pressure from the pump forces lubricating oil from the
tank through a cooling coil to the pump. The oil lubricates the
pump bearings and also provides a seal and lubrication for the
pump vanes.
The cooled oil flows to the pump through the strainer in the
filler pipe. It is possible to visually verify oil flow during
operation by removing the filler cap and checking the flow. If
necessary, the strainer may be cleaned during operation.
In the event it is necessary to clean the strainer during
operation, clean it and replace immediately. It can be cleaned
by immersing in solvent and blowing it dry with compressed
air. Do not operate without the strainer any longer than
necessary, and never add new oil unless it is in place. A spare
strainer basket can be obtained, if desired, and used on a
rotating basis while the other is serviced.
Air Cleaner
Never operate the air pump without the air cleaner in place.
The cleaner itself must be periodically checked and its
element flushed and cleaned semi-annually.
Air-Oil Tank
Pads of steel wool are used in the air to oil tank as a filtering
medium to separate the lube oil from the compressed air.
Figure 8-19 shows a cross-section of the tank and the location
of the steel wool.
The pads play a very important role and should be replaced
semi-annually. It is also important that a proper grade of steel
wool be used. Only No. 3 coarse grade American steel wool
or equal (CB919-124) should be used. Three pads are
750-91
required. When replacing the wool, insert two pads into the
cylinder. Alternate the grain of the pads. Install the spacer
with its stub end toward the opening and fit one pad over the
stub. Be careful not to overly compress the wool and be sure
that it is fluffed out to fill all available space. Improper
packing can cause high oil consumption After the last pad is
in place, slip the retainer screen onto the cylinder. Be sure to
fit an O-ring gasket under the cover so that a tight seal is
obtained.
Follow previous instructions for oil replacement.
Lube Oil Cooling Coil
The fins on the tubing must be kept clean and free of any dust
or dirt that would resist air flow and cause overheating. Use
an air hose to blow away debris. Internal cleaning of the tubes
is seldom required if a good quality lube oil is used.
Flexible Coupling Alignment
Alignment of the pump and motor through the flexible
coupling is extremely important for trouble-free operation.
Check the coupling alignment semi-annually and replace the
coupling insert as required. Keep the coupling guard in place.
The most commonly used tools for checking alignment are a
small straightedge and a thickness gauge.
The coupling must be checked for both parallel (offset)
alignment and angular (gap) alignment. Parallel
misalignment exists when shaft axis are parallel but not
concentric (see Figure 8-20). Angular misalignment is the
reverse situation - shaft axis concentric, but not parallel.
Checking parallel alignment, both horizontal and vertical can
be accomplished, by laying a straightedge across the coupling
halves and checking with a thickness gauge to obtain the
amount of misalignment. The check should be done on the
top of the coupling and at 90 degrees. A useful hint is to hold
a flashlight behind the straightedge so that any gap can readily
be seen.
Shim stock of appropriate thickness and area is then used
under either the feet of the pump or the motor to establish
parallel alignment. A tolerance of .008" is a permissible limit.
After parallel alignment is established, check for angular
alignment, which is done by checking the gap between
coupling halves. The coupling should have a minimum gap of
1/16" and a maximum of 3/32".
Set the spacing between the halves at one point by using a
thickness gauge and then rotate the coupling slowly to be sure
that clearance at that point remains the same through 360
degrees of rotation. Adjust to obtain proper gap by loosening
the hold-down bolts and shifting either the pump or the motor
as required. Generally, a slight tapping on either the front or
rear legs is all that is needed to obtain lateral adjustment. Rear
legs may require shimming for vertical correction.

Figure 8-20: Coupling Alignment
Tighten the hold-down bolts after adjustments are made and

Calipers can also be used to check angular alignment.
Measure the overall distance of the outer ends of the coupling
halves at 90° intervals. Shift the pump or motor, as required,
so that the ends of the coupling are the same distance apart at
all points. The coupling will then have proper angular
alignment.
6.
Remove the fan from the air pump.
7.
Disconnect the flexible air line from the lube tank.
8.
Remove the coupling guard by pushing in on both sides
until it clears the clamp.
9.
Loosen the clamp at the rear of the tank and remove the
tank with copper tubing “A” attached.
10. Leave the rear pump bracket (coupling end) in place to
aid in realignment of the replacement pump. Do this by
removing the two capscrews that extend through the
bracket into the pump housing. Temporarily leave the
front bracket attached to the pump.
11. Remove screws holding the front bracket to the base and
lift off the pump with its attachments. Note the location
of the pipe fittings and brackets prior to removing for
installation on the replacement pump. If piping is
dismantled, be sure that the check valve is reinstalled so
that the gate swings towards the pump.
Reassembly
Reassembly in reverse order of disassembly. With the rear
pump bracket left in place, realignment and spacing between
the pump shaft and the motor shaft is greatly simplified.
Remember that alignment in one direction may alter
alignment in another. Recheck both angular and parallel
alignment procedures after making any alteration.
There should be approximately 7/8” space between the two
shafts. Place the coupling insert between the coupling halves
prior to reassembly. Check that both shafts rotate freely.
A properly aligned coupling will last longer and will provide
trouble-free mechanical operation.
Refer to the previous section on coupling alignment
instructions.
Air Compressor Replacement
If shims were used originally under either pump brackets or
motor feet, be sure that they are correctly reinstalled.
Refer to Chapter 8, Figure 8-18, 19 & 20 for identification of
various components and use the following procedures in
replacing the pump on a CB-LE. Be sure to tag the motor
leads if disconnected to simplify reconnection.
Dismantling
1.
Lift out the two front cylinder pins that hold the screen,
and remove the screen.
2.
Disconnect the flared nut on tubing “A” (behind screen)
and lift tubing “A” high enough to prevent drainage of
lubricating oil from the tank.
3.
Disconnect the flared nut at the orifice fitting.
4.
Remove the two sheet metal screws that hold the cylinder
in place. One screw is located at the top rear of cylinder,
the other is at the bottom front.
5.
Remove the entire heat exchange assembly, consisting of
the cylinder, the finned tubing, and the oil line “B.”
8-20
When reinstalling the fan, slide the hub on the pump shaft so
that it is bottomed. Tighten the setscrew and cap screws. If the
fan blades were removed from the hub, be sure that the side
of the blade marked “Blower” faces the hub when
reassembling. When tightening the coupling halves or the fan
hub, tighten the setscrews against the key first, then tighten
the setscrew against the shaft. Clean or remove any dust or
grime from the blades prior to reinstalling.
When replacing the retainer screen, a slight force may be
required to push the cooling coil into the air cylinder so that
the pins may be fitted into place.
Be sure that all piping connections are tight.
If the motor was replaced or if motor leads were
disconnected, be sure that pump rotation is proper before
starting operation. The air pump should rotate in a clockwise
direction, as viewed from the drive shaft end.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Chapter 8
General
Throat Tile and Liner Installation
Keep the motor and other components free from dust and dirt
to prevent overheating and damage. Motor lubrication should
follow manufacturer’s recommendations.
The furnace lining is shown in Figure 8-21 & 22. The throat
tile must be installed to maintain an approximately 12” inside
diameter, and be centered in the furnace. Since the thickness
of the furnace metal varies with the boiler design pressure, a
shim of appropriate thickness must be used to compensate for
the variance. A layer or two of insulating board or equal, or a
bed of refractory material, may be used to center the ring.
T. REFRACTORY
The boiler is shipped with completely installed refractory.
The refractory consists of the rear head (Figure 8-24), the
inner door, and the furnace liner (Figure 8-22). Normal
maintenance requires little time and expense, and prolongs
the operating life of the refractory.
Preventive maintenance through periodic inspection will
keep the operator informed of the condition of the refractory,
and will guard against unexpected and unwanted downtime
and major repairs.
Frequent wash coating of the refractory surfaces is recommended. High-temperature-bonding, air-dry type mortar,
diluted with water to the consistency of light cream, is used
for wash coating. Recoating intervals will vary with operating
loads and are best determined by the operator when the boiler
is opened for inspection.
The liner tile can be fitted tightly against the furnace, since the
finished diameter is not critical.
It is recommended that the tile be dry-fitted, match-marked,
removed, and then reinstalled with the proper amount of
refractory cement. Thin joints (less than 1/16”) are desirable.
Generally, it will be necessary to shave a portion from one or
more tiles to obtain a fit. If a fill piece is required, cut it to fit
and install the piece at the bottom of the furnace.When
installing the housing, or the tile against the housing, liberally
coat the surface with refractory cement. Remove any cement
that is squeezed out.
Allow refractory to air dry as long as possible. If immediate
use is required, fire intermittently at a low rate for several
hours to thoroughly dry the refractory.

Maintenance consists of occasional wash coating of the entire
liner. Face all joints or cracks by applying high temperature
bonding mortar with a trowel or fingertips. Wash coating
should be done as soon as cracks are detected.
Rear Door
Should segments of the liner burn away or fall out, replace the
entire refractory. Any refractory that may break out should be
removed as soon as detected so that it will not fuse to the
bottom of the furnace and obstruct the flame.
If replacement is necessary, refer to Chapter 9 and order
proper replacement materials. Remove existing refractory.
Thoroughly clean the furnace to remove all old refractory
cement or other foreign material to ensure the new liner seats
firmly against the steel. Inspect the furnace metal.
Depending upon the design pressure of the boiler, the furnace
may be of the corrugated type. It is necessary to fill in the
corrugation valleys under the furnace liner tile from 4 o’clock
to 8 o’clock with insulating cement. The liner tile should be
fitted tightly against the crown of the corrugation.
Note: The area between the burner housing
and the throat tile requires a good seal. An
improper or poor seal allows air leaks that
can cause overheating and burning of the
burner housing metal. The area should be
inspected semi-annually. Contact you local
Cleaver-Brooks representative for
information and service

The rear door is a steel shell containing horizontal baffle tiles
and lined with insulation material and castable refractory (see
Figure 8-24).
Burned or discolored paint on the outer surface of the door
does not necessarily indicate refractory trouble, but may be an
indication of other conditions, such as:
1.
Leaking gaskets.
2.
Improper seal.
3.
Door retaining bolts insufficiently or unevenly tightened.
4.
The air line to the rear sight tube may be blocked or
loose.
5.
Door was repainted with other than heat resistant paint.
Therefore, before assuming that the refractory requires
reworking:
1.
Check the condition of the tadpole gasket and rope seal.
2.
Check the condition of the insulating cement protecting
the tadpole gasket.
3.
Check the horizontal baffle tile for large cracks, breaks,
chipped corners, etc.
4.
Check for cracks in the castable refractory at ends of the
baffle tile.
8-21
Chapter 8
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Check the tightness of the door bolts.
6.
See that the air line to the sight tube is clear, and that the
connections are tight. If necessary, blow the line clear with
an air hose.
It is normal for refractories exposed to hot gases to develop thin
“hairline” cracks. It by no means indicates improper design or
workmanship. Since refractory materials expand and contract
with changes in temperature, they should be expected to show
minor cracks due to contraction when examined at low
temperatures. Cracks to approximately 1/8" across may be
expected to close at high temperature. If there are any cracks
that are relatively large (1/8" to 1/4" in width), clean and fill
them with high-temperature-bonding mortar. Any gap that may
show between the castable refractory and the baffle tile should
be filled in a similar manner.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
After opening the rear door, clean the flange with a scraper or
wire brush. Clean the surface of the refractory carefully with
a fiber brush to avoid damaging the surface. Clean the mating
surfaces of the baffle tile and the boiler shell. Remove all
dried sealing material. Wash-coat the lower half of the rear
door refractory prior to closing.
The upper half of the door contains a lightweight insulating
material, similar to that used in the inner door. A thin washcoat mixture, applied gently with a brush, is helpful in
maintaining a hard surface.
If the baffle tile or the refractory require replacement, contact
your local Cleaver-Brooks authorized representative.
Front Inner Door
The front inner door is lined with a lightweight castable
insulation material. Thin “hairline” cracks may develop after
a period of time. However, the cracks will generally close due
to expansion when the boiler is fired.
A thin wash-coat mixture, applied gently with a brush, is
helpful in maintaining a hard surface.
Minor repairs can be accomplished by enlarging or cutting
out affected areas, being certain that they are clean, and then
patching as required. Should the entire insulation require
replacement, remove existing material and clean to bare
metal. Inspect the retaining pins and replace if necessary.
Reinforcing wire, suitably attached, may also be used.The
recommended insulation is “Vee Block Mix” and is available
in 50 lb bags (Cleaver-Brooks P/N 872-162).
Figure 8-24: Rear Door Open
U. OPENING AND CLOSING REAR
DOOR
A good seal between the rear door and the pressure vessel is
necessary to prevent leakage of combustion gases, loss of
heat, and to aid in obtaining operating efficiency. Leaks can
also cause hot spots that can lead to premature refractory
failure and/or damage to the door metal.
DAVIT ARM ASSEMBLY, REAR R.H.
Mix the material with water to a troweling consistency.
Mixing should be completely uniform with no portion either
wetter or drier than another. Trowel the mixture into any areas
that are being patched. If replacing complete insulation, begin
at the bottom of the door and apply the mixture to a thickness
equal to the protecting shroud. With a trowel, apply
horizontally back and forth across the door in layers until the
required thickness is reached.
Allow to air-dry as long as possible. If immediate use of the
boiler is required, fire as slowly as possible to avoid rapid
drying of the material.

REAR TUBE SHEET
When opening the door, either for routine maintenance or for
an annual inspection, do not do so when the boiler or the door
is hot. The refractory will hold its temperature for some time
and exposure to ambient temperature or rapid cooling may
cause refractory cracking and/or harm to the boiler and door
metal.
ROPE AND CEMENT
REFER TO TEXT
! WARNING
DANGER
Be certain that the davit arm is under
tension before opening. Failure to follow
these instructions can result in serious
personal injury or death.
Before loosening the door bolts, tighten the nut on the davit
stud to ensure tension on the davit arm. Putting the davit arm
under tension will help eliminate sagging, and will facilitate
opening and closing.
The opened door should be supported by blocking or jacking
to eliminate possible deformation of the door.
Prior to closing, check all gaskets and sealing surfaces. If the
door gasket is hard or brittle, it should be replaced. The
fiberglass ropes used for the baffle seal and for the door gasket
seal should not be reused. The door flange and the tube sheet
area of the baffle seal should be clean and free of old sealing
material, scale, etc. Be sure that all of the gasket retaining
fasteners are in place.
Remove the old rope and insulating cement from the baffle
tile or refractory. Be careful not to chip or crack the
refractory. The rope is placed in the groove of the monolithic
design and on top of the lip of the tile baffle type construction.
Attach a new length of 1-1/4" diameter fiberglass rope (P/N
853-982) to the baffle. Be certain that it is properly positioned
and use a rapid setting adhesive (P/N 872-481) to hold it in
place.
Note: A boiler built for high pressure design,
such as 150 psi or higher steam or for 60 psi
or higher hot water, is constructed with a
flanged tube sheet that fits inside the boiler
shell and door flange.
REAR BOILER
FLANGE
Figure 8-26: Rear Flange, Power Boiler
Closing and Sealing
Coat the door gasket with an oil and graphite mixture. Apply
a small amount of a pulp mixture, consisting of P/N 872-26
cement and water around the inner circumference of the
gasket. Press rope into this area. Use 1/2” diameter rope (P/N
853-996) for a boiler of low pressure design. Use 1" diameter
rope (P/N 853-999) for a high pressure boiler.
After the rope is installed, the entire rope and gasket area, and
the baffle area, should be liberally coated with the pulp
mixture. When the door is closed, the pulp will compress to
protect the tadpole gasket and form a seal between the
refractory surface and the tube sheet.
Door bolts should be run in snug and tightened evenly to
avoid cocking the door and damaging the gasket. Start
tightening at top center and alternate between the top and
bottom bolts until both are tight. Do not overtighten. Tighten
alternate bolts until the door is secured and gas tight. After the
boiler is back in operation, retighten the bolts to compensate
for any expansion. Loosen the nut on the davit stud to release
tension from the davit arm.
The area between the curved portion of the sheet and the
flange is packed with fiberglass rope and covered with cement
to fill the void and to provide a smooth sealing area.
Replacement is not normally necessary, but, if it is,
completely remove the old material. Firmly caulk a layer of
1/2" diameter rope (P/N 853-996) into the area. Tamp a
second layer of 1" diameter rope (P/N 853-999) over the first
layer. Apply a coating of insulating cement pulp (P/N 872-26)
over the ropes to form a smooth surface. Allow the cement
pulp to harden before closing the door.

V. LUBRICATION
Electric Motors
Manufacturers of electric motors vary in their specifications
for lubrication and care of motor bearings; their specific
recommendations should be followed.
Ball-bearing-equipped motors are pre-lubricated. The length
of time a bearing can run without having grease added will
depend upon many factors, including the rating of the motor,
8-26
type of motor enclosure, duty, atmospheric conditions,
humidity, and ambient temperatures.
Complete renewal of grease, when necessary, can be
accomplished by forcing out the old grease with the new
grease. Thoroughly wipe those portions of the housing
around the filler and drain plugs (above and below bearings).
Remove the drain plug (bottom) and free the drain hole of any
hardened grease which may have accumulated. With the
motor not running, add new grease through the filler hole
until clear grease starts to come out of the drain hole. Before
replacing the drain plug, run the motor for 10 to 20 minutes
750-91
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Chapter 8
to expel any excess grease.The filler and drain plugs should
be thoroughly cleaned before they are replaced.
The lubricant used should be clean and equal to one of the
good commercial grades of grease locally available. Some
lubricants that are distributed nationally are:
Daily
• Check visually for free movement of IFGR linkage.
Quarterly
• Manually check for free movement of IFGR linkage.
• Gulf Oil - Precision Grease No. 2
• Inspect and clean IFGR damper (oil-fueled system).
• Inspect and clean fan and burner (oil-fueled system).
• Humble Oil - Andok B
• Grease fan motor.
• Texaco - Multifak No. 2
• Phillips - 1B + RB No.2
Semi-Annual • Inspect and clean IFGR damper (gas-fueled system).
• Fiske Bros. - Ball Bearing Lubricant
• Standard/Mobil - Mobilux No. 2
• Inspect and clean fan and burner (gas-fueled system).
Control Linkage
• Open motor/fan cassette to check for free movement of IFGR linkage and damper assembly.
Apply a non-gumming, dripless, high temperature lubricant,
such as graphite or a silicone derivative to all pivot points and
moving parts. Work lubricant in well and wipe excess. Repeat
application at required intervals to maintain freedom of
motion of parts.
Annual
• Inspect fan impeller.
• Check emissions.
• Change inlet gasket.
Solenoid and Motorized Valves
Solenoid valves and motorized valves require no lubrication.
IFGR Lubrication
Motors should be lightly lubricated at startup, using the
grease specified below or equivalent. Lubricate the motor as
follows:
! WARNING
DANGER
Disconnect and lock out electrical power to
the boiler before lubricating the fan motor.
Failure to follow these instructions can
cause injury or death.
6. With the fill and drain plugs still removed, apply electric
power to the boiler, start the motor, and let it run for
approximately 30 minutes.
7. Turn boiler off.
! WARNING
DANGER
Disconnect and lock out electrical power to
the boiler before lubricating the fan motor.
Failure to follow these instructions can
cause injury or death.
8. Disconnect and lock out electrical power to the boiler.
1. Disconnect and lock out electrical power to the boiler.
9. Wipe excess grease from the motor, and install the fill and
drain plugs. Motor is ready for operation.
2. Wipe clean all grease fittings (fill and drain fittings).
10.Reconnect electrical power.
3. Remove the fill and drain plugs from the motor end cap.
4. Free the drain hole of any hard grease. (Use a piece of
wire, if necessary.)
5. Add grease using a low-pressure grease gun.
Note: The amount and type of grease is very
important. Only enough grease should be
added to replace the grease used by the
bearing. Either too much or too little grease
can be harmful. The grease cavity should be
filled 1/3 to 1/2 full, using Chevron SRI 2
grease or equivalent. Shell Dolium R is a
suitable
substitute
lubricant.

W. OIL HEATERS - ELECTRIC,
STEAM, HOT WATER
An annual maintenance of the heaters consists primarily of
removing the heating element from the shell and scraping any
accumulation of carbonized oil or sludge deposits that may
have collected on the heat exchanging surfaces.
Before breaking any of the electrical connections to the
electric heating elements, mark all wires and terminals to
assure rapid and correct replacement of wires.
8-27
Chapter 8
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Finish the cleaning process with a cleaning solvent to cut all
hardened deposits from the heater element. Because of the
insulating effect of carbon and sludge, periodic cleaning is
necessary to prevent overheating of the elements. If operation
of the heater becomes sluggish, examine the elements at once
and clean as required.
be moved the small distance necessary for belt adjustment
without any change of piping.
On a combination fired unit it is an acceptable practice to
remove the belt when gas is being used for extended periods.
It is not absolutely necessary to do this, however pump and
belt life will be extended if the belt is removed.
Inspect the shell or tank each time the heater is removed.
Flush all accumulated sludge and sediment from the tank
before reinstalling the heater.
The condensate from steam oil heaters must be safely
discharged to waste. The waste should be checked
periodically for any traces of oil that would indicate leaking
tubes within the heater.
The hot water oil heater (Figure 8-30) contains a heat transfer
solution. Oil flows through an inner tube while boiler water
surrounds the outer tube. The space between the two tubes is
filled with the heat transfer solution and is connected to an
expansion chamber on the rear of the heater. A visual
indicator on the chamber reveals the presence of any oil if an
oil leak occurs.
A 50/50 solution of permanent antifreeze and water is
generally used as the heat transfer solution. If there is no
danger of freezing, plain water may be used as a
replenishment if necessary to refill.
Evidence of oil in either the steam heater condensate or in the
water heater indicator demands prompt repairs.
X. COMBUSTION
The frequency of burner adjustments depends upon several
factor, including; type of burner, type of fuel, load conditions,
ambient temperature, climatic variables, and general
maintenance practices.
The air-fuel ratio should be checked monthly in order to alert
the operator to losses in efficiency, which do not produce
visible flame change. Any time maintenance is performed on
the burner linkage, the air-fuel ratio should be checked.
Readjustment of the burner may be required due to variations
in fuel composition. A combustion analyzer should be used to
adjust air-fuel ratio for maximum operating efficiency. If your
burner requires adjustments, contact your local CleaverBrooks authorized representative for assistance.
Y. AIR PUMP BELT
The V-belt driving the air pump requires no servicing and no
preservatives or dressing compounds should be used. Belts
normally stretch with use and proper tension should be
maintained. Do not apply excessive tension. The air pump can
